# Image Element

## Content



Tiles can display one or several images. An image can be specified in the Tile using its [Image](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/), [ImageKey](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/), or [Symbol](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/) properties. Also, it can be specified as a part of the template's [ImageElement](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/) or stored in one of the [CommonImage](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/) objects that belong to [C1TileControl](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/).

There are a few tricks when working with images. For example, you can create a big image that consists of N images in width and M images in height. If so, the [ImageColumns](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/) property must be set to N, and [ImageRows](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/) property must be set to N. Also, the [ColumnIndex](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/) and [RowIndex](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/) properties can be used to pick a small image from large matrix.

The [ImageList](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/) collection should be specified first in order to use the [ImageIndex](/componentone/docs/win/online-tilecontrol/) property.
