Tiles can be created at design time or programmatically. At design time they can be created using the C1TileControl.Groups Collection Editor and Group.Tiles Collection Editor. Tiles can also be created programmatically through the Tile class. The tiles can be inserted into the TilesCollection at the specified index using the InsertItem method. You can then add the tiles to the appropriate group using the Group.Tiles property.
