How can I insert a line separator between two rows in a Winform c# ListView?

Question

Is it possible to insert programmatically a line separator between two rows in a Winform c# ListView ?

Like that for example :

Going off of the answer provided in the comments above. You need to hook into the DrawItem event and draw the line at the bottom after whatever item you want is drawn. Here I've drawn a line after item with Text == "2" is drawn:

private void ListView1_DrawItem(object sender, DrawListViewItemEventArgs e)
{
    e.DrawDefault = true;

    if (e.Item.Text == "2")
    {
        e.Graphics.DrawLine(Pens.Black, e.Bounds.Left, e.Bounds.Bottom, e.Bounds.Right, e.Bounds.Bottom);
    }
}

You may need to draw the line underneath multiple items if more than one item is placed on a row in your ListView.

(forgot to say that I used the Tag to mark elements with the line ;) ) – Fabien Jan 17 '17 at 08:19
You're welcome and good use of the `Tag` property - it often comes in handy. – jaredbaszler Jan 17 '17 at 16:12
