Nested PopupButton Content wont show

Hi Clint,

That won't work since you need to use ribbon:Button, ribbon:PopupButton, ribbon:SplitButton, and ribbon:Separator controls in a ribbon:Menu instead of native WPF MenuItems.  If you switch to those controls instead, they will render like menu items.

Yeah I tried that one already. My problem with that is you can only set the "Label" property which takes only a String object type. I need it to be a Content object because I need it dynamically change it to a value which is not always a String based on the selected value on the submenu.

How can i attach a screenshot of my requirement here?

Hi Clint,

That is correct, the ribbon menu items require a text string.  I would recommend you possibly bind their Label with a value converter that can convert your real object values to an appropriate string.

I don't think native MenuItems can be used in random popups.  They have to be hosted within a native Menu or ContextMenu directly to work properly.

You can add any other control though in the popup content, just be sure you do it outside of the ribbon:Menu.  Perhaps you could make a custom templated button to achieve the look you want and inject it that way.

I suppose i'll just create a new template for my case and change my design a bit. i'll probably utilize the icon column for the dynamic part by writing a code that creates a bitmap from controls.

Thanks, glad to have this clarified. Time to move on :)
