Question

I have normal menu in XAML. And I would like to completely change looks of the popup that gets displayed when you click on menu item.

I’m looking for something like this:

<Menu>
    <MenuItem Header="MyCustomMenu">
        <MenuItem.PopupTemplate>
            <ControlTemplate>
                <Image Source="SexyImage"/>
            </ControlTemplate>
        </MenuItem.PopupTemplate>
    </MenuItem>
</Menu>

You need to override the template of the MenuItem since the Popup is a part of it, have a look at the default templates to get an idea of what a template should look like. MenuItem has a TemplatePartAttribute for said popup.
