Remarks

The TileNavElement is the base class for navigation elements that are represented as tiles in drop-down tile bars. The following TileNavElement descendants are available:

• TileNavCategory — a root-level navigation element which can contain TileNavItem objects as children.
• TileNavItem — a navigation element at the second navigation hierarchy level which can contain TileNavSubItem objects as children.
• TileNavSubItem — a bottom-level navigation element.

The TileNavElement.Tile property provides access to the TileBarItem object that is used to render the TileNavElement as a tile in a tile bar. Use the TileNavElement.TileText and TileNavElement.TileImage properties to specify the text and image displayed in the tile.

To handle clicks on the current tile, handle the TileNavElement.TileClick or TileNavPane.TileClick event.

If a TileNavElement has child elements, the tile displays a dropdown button, which can be clicked to display a tile bar displaying the child elements as tiles. The TileNavElement.OptionsDropDown property provides access to the set of options applied to the drop-down tile bar.
