Then you don't want the index, you just want to know position. Using localToGlobal and globalToLocal will help you compute where the renderer is relative to the TileLIst. You may also need to factor in viewmetrics.

I have a TileList that displays images. I'd like to be able to mouseover one of the images and get the index of the column it's in. Is there any way to get a row or column index on MouseOver? For context, I am displaying a custom tooltip on mouseover and I'd like to be able to tell if I'm mousing over the last image in the row so that I can prevent my tooltip from displaying offscreen.
