Yes we should.
I already have a listView example somewhere on my Linux VM, so when I
have time i'll do so.

I find it hard to beleive that the native QT implementatiosn does not
provide some method to allow more than one l;ne...

I did have a look at your code.
It looked impressive, but at the time I already implemented the
ListView approach.

Because all the drawing and all calculations need to be done by
ourselves, I decided to use a "standard" LCL control that is
_supposed_ to do all that just by itself.
This way we keep re-inventing the wheel.

Maybe the current state of things (and the fact we show how awkward
the results can look) will trigger people in fixing the TListView on
GTK2 and QT.
