IconList Control

This was previously called the Desktop Icons control in 5.1. The IconList control is used to display a list of options in a tiled icon format. The size of tile/container for the icon and caption, and the icon (.ico) size are all independent and can be sized or scaled as needed.

The difference between the IconList control and the ButtonList control is that the caption appears outside of the icon tile in the IconList, where as the text appears inside the tile/button in a ButtonList control.

The text is also scaled relative to the size of the icon in the icon tile/container. The typical navigation and viewing options such as scrollbars, swiping up/down, changing the color of the pressed icon, display of keyboard etc are supported. Depending on the size of the control on the form and the size of the overall icon, the columns of icons will be added or removed based on the available space.

Refer to Themes > IconList to assign the default values for the IconList properties.
