I've just started learning C# WPF with a basic empty project and I want to make a grid, with a background image, which stretches exactly over the window.
The way it is now, the grid stretches, but not the way I want it. For example my background image is 1000x1000px and my window size is 1700x1200px so the grid stretches to 1200x1200px (it keeps the aspect ratio of the image. I don't want this, I want it simply to stretch all over the window.
Here is my code:
<Window x:Class="Backgammon.Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="Window1" Height="auto" Width="auto">
<Grid VerticalAlignment="Stretch">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="auto" MinWidth="510" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Image Source="C:\Users\Edy\Pictures\cool-wallpapers1.jpg" Stretch="UniformToFill" HorizontalAlignment="Left"></Image>
<Button Height="33" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Margin="0,0,12,12" Name="button1" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Width="145" Click="button1_Click" ClipToBounds="False">Connect</Button>
<ListBox Margin="12,12,0,149" Name="listBox1" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="225" />
</Grid>
Any help would be great, thanks.
