Hi Derrick,
Thank you for getting in touch us.
In this help topic you will find information explaining how to use custom icons with background image:
An alternative approach would be not to use a button/tab strip/list but regular img element enhanced to
touch component. In this way you will be able to catch the
tap event and use the
navigate method of the application to load the remote View.
