Horizontal Orientation inside TileListPanel

[Johannes]

Hello Telerik Team,

 I'm trying to change the orientation of my tiles within a group from vertical default orientation to horizontal orientation.

 I already created a class derived from TileListPanel overriding the default orientation:

public class CustomTileListPanel : TileListPanel
{
    protected override bool HasLogicalOrientation { get { return true; } }
    protected override Orientation LogicalOrientation { get { return Orientation.Horizontal; } }
}

 

But unfortunately this has no effect.

 Please tell me how I can change the orientation of the tiles.

 

Regards,

Johannes

Hello Johannes,

Currently, the whole logic behind the arrangement of tiles is based on their vertical arrangement. We will research whether we can improve the behavior so that the tiles can be placed from left to right as well.

This is a feature I would really like to see also.

In my scenario I have a RadTileList that has a single group with no header and I would like the tiles to flow left to right and overflow when they go over the right hand side. I don't need multiple groups to stack vertically as I'm using a single group with no header (effectively no grouping at all).

Default functionality is that the tiles flow top to bottom and overflow to the right.

If there is any way we could override the code or derive from the Telerik classes to implement this behaviour please let me know.

Hello Richard,

This is already logged in the Telerik UI for WPF Feedback Portal where you can track its status. Currently, there is no API that allows customizing this behavior.

Hi Telerik,

Really happy to see you have now implemented the Horizontal orientation for this control in the latest build!

It's a refreshing change to work with a development team that care for, maintain and extend their existing codebase rather than so many that only ever focus on pushing new products and leave the old stuff to rot.

Thanks for all your hard work, it is much appreciated 👍
