Solution 1
You can try changing your Image
to an ImageBrush
and then assign that to your BackGround
your image will then stretch over the inner surface of your button.
<Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<Window.Resources>
<ImageBrush x:Key="MyResource" ImageSource="C:\temp\test.jpg" />
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
<Button Height="25" Background="{StaticResource MyResource}" Width="40" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="417,10,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top"/>
</Grid>
</Window>
or add a TextBlock to your Button Content and assign your Image as a BackGround to it.
<Window.Resources>
<ImageBrush x:Key="MyResource" ImageSource="C:\temp\test.jpg" />
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
<Button Height="25" Width="40" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="417,10,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<Button.Content>
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Width="34" Height="19" Margin="0">
<TextBlock.Background>
<StaticResource ResourceKey="MyResource"/>
</TextBlock.Background>
</TextBlock>
</Button.Content>
</Button>
</Grid>
Solution 2
Set HorizontalContentAlignment
and VerticalContentAlignment
Properties of the Button
to be Stretch
:
<telerik:RadButton Height="25" Width="40"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" //this
VerticalContentAlignment="Stretch" //and this
Margin="417,10,0,0"
Name="radButton1" VerticalAlignment="Top" Click="UpButtonClick">
<telerik:RadButton.Content>
<StaticResource ResourceKey="MyResource"/>
</telerik:RadButton.Content>
</telerik:RadButton>

Mark Hall over 11 yearsThats why I added the second option, the only other way that I could think of would to be to modify the Button Template.
