WPF drop down and split button

I've been trying to create a drop down button and a split button in WPF.
It has been very frustrating, but I think I finally got it.

Drop Down and Split Button ver 1.2

I have updated the split button control to use command binding.

Please let me know if this helps you.

I have tried it out, and it seems to work alright. Looks great!
However, I tried to have the DropDownButton show a new image by having the program set its ImageSource property to a new image source, and was surprised to find that the image did not change. - How come?

I have updated the sample, to show how you can load the menu item in code.

Hi, great sample! I have one question: how do you insert a separator menu item in the context menu? Thanks,

Thank you. I've been looking for things like this and it just works fine.

One question: does it work with WPF/Windows themes, e.g.: switching between Aero and Classic themes?
