UWP Runtime Component - Using Images

Question

It seems that using images in a Universal Windows Component is impossible...

I have some images in the Assets Folder

Each has a build type of Content.

Now when I try to use it XAML via the image element: <Image Source="Assets/signal-strength-1.png" /> nothing shows up in the designer.

I've done plenty of WPF work but new to UWP. There are some obvious differences but I can't seem to figure this out. Any ideas? I really need to get the design view to work better. I hate having to hit play every time I need to play with the layout.

Thanks in advance

Nevermind...figured it out: ms-appx:\\\<component-name>\Assets\signal-strength-1.png />
