2.6 Image Tile

The "Image" tile displays the image assigned to the tile's "Background" setting.
By default, it reveals the tile "Title" and tile "Content" when hovering over the tile similar to the SharePoint Promoted Links.
The tile can optionally be linked via the tile's "URL" setting.
You also can define the image by attaching it to the tile as a file attachment (and leave the "Background" setting empty).

Example 1:

The above image tile uses the below settings, displaying an image from the"Pictures" Sharepoint picture library.
The tile displays the tile "Title" and "Content" (if present).

Title:Welcome to our Intranet!/box=teal
Content:Please have a look..
Background:http://somedomain/Pictures/someBanner.jpgThe "Image" tile can be configured to display the text within a colored box by appending "/box=boxcolor" to the tile's "Title" field where "boxcolor" is either an HTML color name (as eg. "teal") or an RGB #RRGGBB color value.

Example 2:

The example to the right displays an image from the"Pictures" Sharepoint picture library.
The tile displays the tile "Title" and "Content" (if present).

Title:IT Document Library
Content:Cras mauris purus, tincidunt quis facilisis dapibus, cursus eu risus. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
Background:http://somedomain/Pictures/somePicture.jpgThe tile supports 3 options on how to render the image within the tile.
The option is appended to the tile's "Background" URL.

/cover
the image is scaled to fill the tile

/contain
the image is scaled to be fully visible

/center
the image is not scaled but centered
