Span Columns/Rows in TileView

[Charlie McKeegan]

Is there any way to have RadTileViewItems span more than one column or more than one row when in the restored state? If not would you consider this a feature request?

Hi Charlie,

At the moment TileViewItems cannot span multiple rows/columns in restored state. However, I will log your suggestion and if there is popular demand for this feature will consider implementing it.

Thank you for the feedback. I updated your Telerik points.

Hi Telerik team,

Any updates on above post.

Hello Jaggu,

Unfortunately this issue is still not available within the RadTileView control. At the moment the best you can do in that context is to apply different sizes on the tiles. You can take a look at this blog post or examine the TileView->DifferentSizes demo for further information on the available settings.

I also think this feature would be very useful. It would have saved my day :)

Hi Ola,

Thank you for the feedback.

At the moment we do not plan implementing this feature because it requires a huge refactoring of the control. This would introduce some breaking changes and we are doing our best to avoid such. However, you can follow the feedback item in our portal, so you would be notified by email as soon as there is any change in the item's status.

In addition as another workaround to achieve this layout of the TileView (except the proposed solution in the blog post), you can check the approach suggested in this forum thread and see if it will fit your scenario.

Thank you for the understanding.

Hello,

I would also vote for this feature, although I totally understand how "breaking change" sounds like.

In my case in certain place there are fixed 3 tiles in 2cols-2rows View. So in Restored state one would ideally span two columns. 

I will try to play with sizes.

Hello Charlie,

You can see how to achieve multiple row/column span for the tiles in the RestoredTilesToSpanMultipleRowsAndColumns SDK example.
