Hi @Depechie, What do you mean with variable tiles?

Like the start menu of Windows. Have different sizes, squares, rectangles etc

Hi @Depechie, Okay. I was thinking about something like that too.

As we discussed in #131 i resize the tiles to get them smaller. After that i got a new idea to give every User the possibillity to set the tiles size in the settings menu. I don't think it is handy to resize every widget but to select the size from a few different sizes.

What do you think?

Originally I did a poc with VariableSizedWrapGrid ( https://github.com/Depechie/FluentOpenHab ) worked well. Only problem I faced was how strict would the Win UI version follow the Widget type definitions and Item definitions. Because height is a given property for an item and I think some dimensions are given per widget type. ( not sure anymore because have been a while since I used it )
