Feature Request: GenericTile to create Dashboards

[C3ntraX]

Feature Request Description

The webcomponents have a missing tile named "GenericTile". The problem is the following: If a customer has multiple modules, you want him to select a module from a kind of dashboard. The best option to choose a module would be to display them as tiles. The problem is, that your components do not offer such a component or a other a similar component to compensate the "GenericTile" in order to create a dashboard.

Proposed Solution

See: https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/sdk/#/api/sap.m.GenericTile

Proposed Alternatives

I saw the "Card" component, that would be the next best component, but that doesn't work for the dashboard either.

Hello @ilhan007,

I saw that the last new component was implemented more than a year ago, that's a lot. When do you think this feature could be implemented?

Best regards

Also discussed in #2756

Okay didn't thought of this. I think I could use the Card for the dashboard. Maybe you could add some examples for an launchpad that this is clear for further requests. Like: https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/sdk/#/entity/sap.m.GenericTile/sample/sap.m.sample.GenericTileAsLaunchTile

Hello @ilhan007 and @gmkv,

Ok, I used the card for my dashboard/launchpad for now. But I had to do a lot of styling purposes.

I want to reproduce this:

But this is what I created (for now)

The tile requires an IconContent component. Also, @ilhan007's example doesn't set a fixed width for tiles: <ui5-busyindicator active size="Medium"> <ui5-card id="card" status="in progress" heading="Title" subheading="subtitle"> <div>your content</div> </ui5-card> </ui5-busyindicator>

The busyindiacator size "Medium" does not work for frame types "OneByOne", "TwoByOne" or "TwoThrids".

So I think you should really reconsider your decision in #2756. The card component does not work for the Firori style guidelines and a GenericTile.
