Does anyone know how to change the brush for a menu's background? This sounds simple, but I don't see any obvious way to do this. You'd think that the Background property would change it, but it doesn't. Here's what my menu looks like (notice the default white background): Example Code: <Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.Window1" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" Title="Window1" Height="300" Width="300"> <Window.Resources> <SolidColorBrush x:Key="menuItemBrush" Color="#FF505050" /> </Window.Resources> <Grid x:Name="mainGrid" Background="#FF252525"> <Menu x:Name="mainMenu" Background="{DynamicResource menuItemBrush}" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" VerticalAlignment="Top"> <MenuItem x:Name="fileMenu" Background="{DynamicResource menuItemBrush}" Foreground="White" Header="File"> <MenuItem x:Name="fileOpenMenuItem" Background="{DynamicResource menuItemBrush}" Foreground="White" Header="Open..." /> <MenuItem x:Name="fileSaveMenuItem" Background="{DynamicResource menuItemBrush}" Foreground="White" Header="Save" /> <MenuItem x:Name="fileSaveAsMenuItem" Background="{DynamicResource menuItemBrush}" Foreground="White" Header="Save As..." /> <Separator Style="{DynamicResource menuItemSeperator}" /> <MenuItem x:Name="fileExitMenuItem" Background="{DynamicResource menuItemBrush}" Foreground="White" Header="Exit" /> </MenuI
