In WPF, What is the best way to create toolbar buttons so that the images are properly scaled?

Question

Specifically, I'm looking to use the 16*16 32-bit png images included with the VS2008ImageLibrary. I've tried manually setting the Height and Width attributes of the image, adjusting margins and padding, adjusting Stretch and RenderOptions. My attempts to create toolbar buttons have all led to either Improper Scaling (blurry icons), the bottom row of pixels on the icon being truncated, or the toolbar button being improperly sized - not to mention the disappearing icons already mentioned Here. Has anyone found the best way to make standard, VisualStudio/WinForms-style toolbar buttons that display properly in WPF?

Answer 1

First, change the image resolution to 96DPI, this can done with the free Paint.net ( http://www.getpaint.net ) by opening the file, Selecting Image->Canvas Size from the menu and adjusting the "resolution" to 96 and saving.

If this doesn't help you can then use the solution I wrote about in my blog here http://www.nbdtech.com/blog/archive/2008/11/20/blurred-images-in-wpf.aspx
