Binding to CheckBox.IsChecked

If I put this XAML into the Ribbon:
<CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding Path=DisableOverlayCaching}" Content="Disable Screen Overlay Caching" />
The binding works fine.

If I put this XAML in:
<ribbon:CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding Path=DisableOverlayCaching}" Label="Disable Screen Overlay Caching" />
It does not.

I do not see any binding errors in the output window. The DP that is being bound to is:
public static readonly DependencyProperty DisableOverlayCachingProperty = DependencyProperty.Register("DisableOverlayCaching", typeof(bool), typeof(DeveloperTab), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(false, OnDisableOverlayCachingChanged));
Is there something else I should try?

Hi David,

I tried this in a sample here and it worked fine. I did Mode=TwoWay binding because I bound both CheckBox controls to the prop on the Window, then toggled the window prop.

I added Mode=TwoWay and it all worked.

It would appear that the standard WPF CheckBox has a default Mode of TwoWay, while the Ribbon CheckBox does not.

Was this intentional?

We added the default to TwoWay option for the next build.
