            </ControlTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>

By some reason my popup(PART_Popup) isn’t the same width as toggleButton. It has width enough for displaying item. If I don’t override template popup is the same width as toggleButton. So I can’t understand why I can’t get the same situation with standart template

    Change the MinWidth of mwt:SystemDropShadowChrome from 0 to:

    MinWidth="{Binding ElementName=MainGrid,Path=ActualWidth}"
