Tile Size

[Ben]

Has anyone found a way to force the minimum/initial size on tiles when you load them from a dataset? Following the online examples I set up the item template and content template, but it doesn't seem to matter what I set the minimum height and width to, the tiles resize so they all fit in the allocated window size, which causes an issue when I try to put 50 tiles in a 400 x 400 control. I tried wrapping a scroll viewer around it and letting it grow in that, but no luck.

Any thoughts or insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Ben,

This functionality is not supported yet by the TileView. We are planning to implement it, but currently I cannot bind to a specific date. Let me know if you have additional comments or questions.

All the best,

If I understand this correctly, does this mean that it is not possible to prevent Tiles from shrinking by any method (scrollbars, properties, etc...)?

Hello Cass,

If you set the size of the RadTileView - the items will be shrinked accordingly. But yes- currently you can set a custom item size. We are looking forward enabling this. Probably this functionality will be available after Q1.

I think I have the same problem - I made an example with a TileView inside the large content of a TileViewItem (using DockPanel, LastChildFill = true). Reacting on a SizeChanged-Event works perfectly for the outer TileView, but the inner TileView doesn't change it's size. So had to do it myself.

I wish the would be some functionality that the TileView resizes automatically and also resizes it's children!

Kind regards,
Jan

Hi Jan,

Unfortunately I was not able to reproduce the issue. Could you please take a look at the attached project and tell me if I am missing something. Also, it will be great if you can send us a sample project reproducing the issue. This way we will be better able to assist you.

Hi Kiril,

thank you very much for your example! I found what was going wrong. I did too much predefinition (incl. calculation for minimized size etc.) because I didn't know that all works automatically :-)

Now my prototype looks as I want it to be!

Kind regards,
Jan
