    <p>I have a GridView with elements containing a TextBlock and an Image. The TextBlock always populates fine, but the Image, once in a while, does not get loaded for one or two items. If I refresh the data source, the image correctly displays. I think the issue is with the timing (all data fetching is done asynchronously). Here is the code that fetches the images from disk. All images are 140x140 pixels and are PNG files.</p> <pre><code>public async Task&lt;List&lt;BitmapImage&gt;&gt; getPhotos() { photos.Clear(); //clears list of photos IReadOnlyList&lt;IStorageFile&gt; files = (IReadOnlyList&lt;IStorageFile&gt;)await folderHierarchy.Last().GetFilesAsync(); //reads in all files from current working directory foreach (StorageFile currentFile in files) //for each file in that directory { if (currentFile.Name.EndsWith(".png")) //only handle png files { photos.Add(await getBitmapImageAsync(currentFile)); //actually read in image from separate async method (bellow) } } return photos; } public async Task&lt;BitmapImage&gt; getBitmapImageAsync(StorageFile storageFile) { BitmapImage image = new BitmapImage(); FileRandomAccessStream stream = (FileRandomAccessStream) await storageFile.OpenAsync(FileAccessMode.Read); image.SetSource(stream); return image; } </code></pre> <p>I run this method using: List tilePicturesArray = await dataFetcherClass.getPhotos(); The original photos List does not contain all of the photos. Something wrong is happening in that first block of code (above). The next step is when I populate the Image and TextBox via in my List (GridViewCell is a class that I made to bind data in my GridView) The list of GridViewCell objects is what is binded to my GridView. I don't believe that this is the issue.</p> <pre><code>for (int x = 0; x &lt; tileTitlesArray.Count; x++) //this IS running inside of an async method { GridViewCell singleCell = new GridViewCell(); singleCell.tileName = tileTitlesArray.ElementAt(x); singleCell.tileImage = tilePicturesArray.ElementAt(x); tileCells.Add(singleCell); //tileCells is the datasource for gridview } </code></pre> <p>What do you think would be causing the issue? I added a little refresh button which basically reruns the above loop (to repopulate the gridview datasource and tiles) but does not refetch the tilePicturesArray, so the binding is done using the same original List of BitmapImages (and the same tiles are still missing pictures)</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
