[Solved] How to close RadMenu when some object inside a RadMenuItem is clicked...

[Rob]

Let's say I have RadMenu that has an ItemTemplate defined like this...

<Rad:HierarchicalDataTemplate x:Key="it">
  <Grid>
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
      <RowDefinition Height="21" />
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
      <ColumnDefinition Width="1*"/>
    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
      <TextBlock Content="{Binding MyCaption}" />
      <Button Content="Button1" Command="..." CommandParameter="..." />
      <Button Content="Button2" Command="..." CommandParameter="..." />
    </StackPanel>
  </Grid>
</Rad:HierarchicalDataTemplate>

The RadMenuItem's will have a textblock followed by two buttons.  I can click on the RadMenuItem and the RadMenu will behave normally, however, if I click on the buttons, I would also like the RadMenu to close.  How can I accomplish this?

this is the only way I found to accomplish it... this is basically just invoking the default behavior of the root menu item... which happens to be close if it's open.  hope it helps.

void btn_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
RadMenuItemAutomationPeer mip = new RadMenuItemAutomationPeer(menuItemRoot);
mip.Invoke();
}

I ended up just rearranging my menu items instead.  I'm wary about having to add click events all over just to close the menu.
