Removing Scatter view item

If I am using scatter view that contains Library Controls. The user could drag element from the library container to scatter view. After that the user could remove the image.

I created style that contain surface button and image within view box as drag template.

The problem is with the click function of the surface button? what should i write to remove the image.

Do you want to remove the whole ScatterViewItem or just the image and keep the button? In general you remove ScatterViewItems by finding the Visual Ancestor with this method:

/// <summary>
    /// Attempts to get an ancestor of the passed-in element with the given type.
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="T">Type of ancestor to search for.</typeparam>
    /// <param name="descendent">Element whose ancestor to find.</param>
    /// <param name="ancestor">Returned ancestor or null if none found.</param>
    /// <returns>True if found, false otherwise.</returns>
    public static T GetVisualAncestor<T>(DependencyObject descendent) where T : class
    {
        T ancestor = null;
        DependencyObject scan = descendent;
        ancestor = null;

        while (scan != null && ((ancestor = scan as T) == null))
        {
            scan = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent(scan);
        }

        return ancestor;
    }

then you can remove the SVI from the items collection: ancestor.items.remove(descendent);
