Menu Modification or QuickCommand popup

[Mike Cowing]

On the right click of a node I can modify the menu to only have the controls I want, but the Icon is only looking for a URI mapped to a jpg/png. Is that correct? I use XAML icons throughout the rest of the application and ideally would like to use those too. 

Secondly I don't see a way to have sub-menu-items for the menu. Is that possible?

Thirdly is it possible to have the QuickCommand invoke a menu or usercontrol of my own?

Finally the IDiagramCommands I'm struggling to be able to reference from XAML directly. If I build up a usercontrol menu, then I'd add this in XAML. I was hoping something like this would work: Command="{x:Static syncfusion:IDiagramCommands.SendToBack}"

Thanks...

Thirdly is it possible to have the QuickCommand invoke a menu or UserControl of my own?	Yes, it is possible. We can invoke the user control in the custom quick command.
Finally the IDiagramCommands I'm struggling to be able to reference from XAML directly. If I build up a usercontrol menu, then I'd add this in XAML. I was hoping something like this would work: Command="{x:Static syncfusion:IDiagramCommands.SendToBack}"	We can invoke the diagram command into the user control menu.

Thank you for the response. The last three I can understand now, but I think you misunderstood my first question. 

I'm aware of the icon property and how to set that using a URI. My question was can I not use a XAML icon as created by your Metro Studio? All of the icons I use in my app are created this way. IDeally I don't want to have to start finding new icons.

For instance here is one of my Icons and how I normally use it:

    <Path Style="{StaticResource IconOil}" Width="46" Height="46"/>

<Style x:Key="IconOil" TargetType="{x:Type Path}">

<Setter Property="RenderTransformOrigin" Value="0.5,0.5"/>

<Setter Property="Fill" Value="#FFFFFFFF"/>

<Setter Property="Stretch" Value="Uniform"/>

<Setter Property="Height" Value="256"/>

<Setter Property="Width" Value="256"/>
