Remarks

The resource management system for UWP apps supports the tailoring of resources for scale. Starting in Windows 8.1, different views owned by an app are able to display simultaneously on different display devices that may use different scales. In this way, scale is a per-view characteristic.

Since the Resolve method selects the best candidate for a NamedResource in relation to a runtime context, and since the scale qualifier of a ResourceContext depends on the associated view, the Resolve should always be called passing a ResourceContext object obtained from the view in which the resource will be used.

See the ResourceContext.GetForCurrentView method.
