The obective of this post is to describe the properties to set on the different WPF controls in order to have:

- a menu which has the same width as the application (and not restricted to a default width)

- having a chart control which resizes inside the client area, without overlapping the menu control

Since it tooks me a few minutes to retrieve the right proeprties to set in order to have a main menu, this article describes exactly what to do to have:

- no margin between the menu and the title bar

- have the main toolbar menu that is resized with the main window
