WKInterfaceTable inside WKInterfaceGroup with static BG image behind?

Question

I’m trying to display a static background image behind a scrolling WKInterfaceTable, that could contain one or more rows. I’m trying to do this by placing the table inside a WKInterfaceGroup, and setting that group’s background image. The issue is that if I set the group’s height to “Size to fit content”, the table will not scroll, and if I set the group’s height to “Relative to container”, the image does not take up the full display if there is only one row.

Is there a clever way around this problem? What I need is for the image to be the height of the display regardless of whether the number of rows is enough to scroll the table or not.

Possible?

While I can't find the reference at the moment, an Apple employee in the developer forums has stated that having a static background image behind a scrolling table isn't possible with the current version of WatchKit.

I am tempted to downvote this perfect answer due the absurdity of the limitation – Mazyod Oct 29 '15 at 01:11
@Mazyod please open a rdar. If we complain in masses, Apple might add it in a future release. – DrMickeyLauer Apr 18 '17 at 14:28
