I have a Windows.Forms.ListBox on my form, it has a SelectionMod of one. I'm trying to find out when a user scrolls up or down on the listbox, but doesn't select the entry that's visible, if I can capture that visible value or not. is there a way to do this. Thanks.

What I have tried:

I've tried creating a Control.ListBoxItem, setting a value of it's Content, and then adding that to the Items in the ListBox. The ListBoxItems have an isVisible property that I was hoping to use, but that didn't work.

The property you want is TopIndex. See ListBox Class (System.Windows.Forms)[^]
