Object Type	Path to ItemBackgroundImageAlignment
TileView	.OptionsTiles .ItemBackgroundImageAlignment

Remarks

You can create background images for your tiles in two different ways:

• by creating an element bound to the column containing images. In this case, you should select the corresponding image scale mode for this tile element and remove tile paddings (the TileViewItemOptions.ItemPadding property);
• by assigning a grid column containing an image to the BackgroundImages property accessible via the TileView.ColumnSet property.

The ItemBackgroundImageAlignment property specifies the background image alignment for the second approach. See the Tile View topic to learn more.
