Auto column with minimum width

[Wenrong]

I would like my application GUI to be able to scale with the amount of screen estate available. Using a TileView, seems like the only options to control the column width are:

1. set ColumnsCount of the TileView, which will cause the tile to resize as the view resizes
2. set ColumnWidth, which gives each column a fixed width regardless of the size of the view, number of column would change according to the view width.

I quite like the second method, except that it leaves a rather ugly empty void on one side of the TileView.

Is there an option to either:

• Cause the tile to stretch similar to when ColumnsCount is set? maybe with a MinimumColumnWidth property... For example, if MinimumColumnWidth=300 and the TileView width is 1100, each of the 3 columns will have the width of 366, and when the TileView has a width of 1200, one more column will appear with width of 300 each.
• Evenly space the columns across the whole width of the TileView?

Hello Wenrong,

The RadTileView doesn't support your layout requirements out-of-the-box, but you can handle the RadTileView.SizeChanged event to implement custom logic controlling the ColumnsCount and the Width of the tiles if needed.

I attached a sample solution demonstrating a possible approach for implementing the deasribed layout. Please have a look at it and let me know if it works for you.

All the best,
