How to: Create TileNavPane Navigation Buttons and Categories in XAML

This example shows how to create a TileNavPane, populate it with navigation elements and add custom buttons to the nav bar.

In the XAML markup, four buttons are added to the NavButtons collection. Buttons added to this collection are displayed in the nav bar. The first, which is aligned at the left margin of the nav bar, is the Main Button. The IsMain property of this button is set to true. Other buttons are aligned to the right using the HorizontalAlignment property. The second button contains items, and so a drop-down tile bar is invoked when this button is clicked. Button glyphs are differently aligned (theGlyphAlignment property) and the rightmost button does not have a textual content (the Content property). All glyphs are specified to be displayed with the glyph theming feature enabled (the AllowGlyphTheming property).

One category (TileNavCategory) is added the Categories collection. This category contains one child item, which in turn contains two sub-items. The textual and graphical content of tiles is specified with the TileContent and TileGlyph properties. Textual content of the corresponding buttons in the nav bar is specified with the Content property.
