Use of popup of WPF to use as a selection menu

Introduction

This tip is about the use of popup of WPF to use as a selection menu. Here is the code snippet to have a look at.

Using the Code

The code should be set as style "Formatted" like this:

XML
<Button x:Name="generatebtn" Content="Generate" 
Height="25" Margin="10" Width="60" Click="generatebtn_Click" />

            <Popup x:Name="popup" IsOpen="False" 
            PlacementTarget="{Binding ElementName=selFilesbtn}" 
            Placement="Top" Width="146">
                <Border BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="1" 
                Background="AliceBlue">
                    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                        <Grid Width="142">
                            <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                                <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
                                <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />

                            </Grid.RowDefinitions>
                            <GroupBox Header="Review As" 
                            HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" 
                            Grid.Row="0">
                                <StackPanel>
                                    <RadioButton x:Name="currentSelectionBtn" 
                                    Content="CurrentSelection"/>
                                    <RadioButton x:Name="singleFileBtn" 
                                    Content="As Single File"/>
                                </StackPanel>
                            </GroupBox>
                            <Button x:Name="generateAsBtn" Content="Generate" 
                            Grid.Row="1" Click="generateAsBtn_Click" />
                        </Grid>
                    </StackPanel>
                </Border>
            </Popup>
