In this topic you'll add a C1TileView control to your application. Complete the following steps:

1. In Visual Studio select File | New | Project.
2. In the New Project dialog box, select Templates | Visual C# | Windows | Universal. From the templates list, select Blank App (Universal Windows). Enter a Name and click OK to create your project.
3. Open MainPage.xaml if it isn't already open, place the cursor between the <Grid> and </Grid> tags, and click once.
4. Navigate to the Toolbox and double-click the C1TileView icon to add the control to the grid. This will add the reference and XAML namespace automatically. The XAML markup resembles the following:

Markup	Copy Code
<Grid Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}"> <TileView:C1TileView HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="100" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="100"/> </Grid>

What You've Accomplished

You've successfully set up your application's user interface, but if you run your application now you'll see that the C1TileView control currently contains no content. See the Adding Items to C1TileView topic for more information.
