  • you can change above seperator for fancy 

     <Separator>
    <Separator.Template>
        <ControlTemplate>
            <Border CornerRadius="6"
                    Padding="1"
                    Background="red"
                    BorderBrush="blue"
                    BorderThickness="3">
                <Line></Line>
            </Border>
        </ControlTemplate>
    </Separator.Template>
    </Separator>

    Contextmenus are nothing but menus but work as context on any control.

  • Toolbar works very similar to stackpanel with defaulted horizantal orientation

    Also it defaults different templates for the items in it -- like button in toolbar will have its own style(Pre Themed .. and can be overridden)

    Status bar is also similar to toolbar
