Text Color |
Choose a foreground text color that is used to display the app name on a medium-sized tile. Available drop-down options are:
Note • Only a medium-sized tile (150x150) has room to display a name on the tile. Also, in order for the Text Color setting to have an effect, the Show Name on Medium Tile setting must be Yes. |

|
Background Color |
Select a color to be used as the background color of the tile. A drop-down selection provides several predefined colors, or an ellipsis button (...) lets you choose additional colors or specify an RGB hex string color. |

|
Small Tile Image |
Specify a relative path to a small-sized (70x70) tile background image. Important • If you choose to use custom images, you must specify an image for both the small tile image (70x70) and the medium tile image (150x150) and they must be added to the project manually. If you specify only one, the default Windows styling for the app icon and background is applied to the tile. Also, if you provide scaled, high-contrast, or localized images, you need to manually create a resources.pri file and place it in the same directory as the app's .exe file and its .visualelementsmanifest.xml file. For more information about using images or creating a resources.pri file, refer to the following MSDN article: Desktop App Tiles on the Start Screen. |
