How to render an image?

Question

I want to display the grid as an image for use on live tiles in my Metro Style app for Windows 8.

Answer 1

Since WinRT does not have WriteableBitmap.Render (), your WriteableBitmapEx (CodePlex) parameters, or if you need fonts, are Direct2D (you can use it with C # thanks to SharpDX).

Answer 2

Right now there is no way to render an image from a control.
