Windowscommunitytoolkit: Tiling images

[Daveid105cz]

I would like to see some image control with tiling images like this

You will just set an image and it will draw it as many times it needs to be completely filled.
I really miss this feature in UWP.

Hello can you elaborate a bit more?
Are you looking for a listview control or are your more interested by a single image control?

Because it seems that the AdaptiveGridView can produce something similar

[Daveid105cz]

I would like to have a single image control.
AdaptiveGridView can´t do that because you need to add specific items into it.
I want to just specify one image resource(Uri) and when this image is 50x50 and size of this control is 100x100 then there will be 4 same images.
When the size of the control will be 150x100 then there will be 6 images like this
+-----+-----+-----+
| Img | Img | Img |
+-----+-----+-----+
| Img | Img | Img |
+-----+-----+-----+
So the images will fill the area one by one and not with stretching.
Something like TileBrush in WPF.

Can you please give a business example for this ? I mean a real world scenario :)

[Daveid105cz]

For example you want to have background of an application with some fancy texture and it will always look pretty at every display size. Now i am using a texture placed in Image in almost 2140p.
Its working solution but it wont work with bigger screen sizes.

Ok so to be sure, you would like to have a Stretch parameter that can be set to "Repeat", correct?

[Daveid105cz]

Yes, exactly.
