Question

I have a live tile in my Windows 8 store app which is defined as TileWideImageAndText01 and TileSquarePeekImageAndText04. The image is in an format which doesn't fit the tile, so I guess the tile is taking the center of the picture?

Actually I want the tile to take the top of my picture and not centering it.

Is it possible to change this behaviour in my live tile declaration?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Unfortunately I found out that there is no out-of-the-box-solution for my problem.

I solved it by creating a BitmapResource out of my image, cropping it programmatically and save it back to my ApplicationFolder, where I can reference the image in my live tile with "ms-appdata:///...."
