Where can I get themes for WPF controls that resemble the Visual Studio 2010 interface?

问题

My application is build around AvalonDock, which has quite good Visual Studio 2010 skin (which is much prettier than all the other skins). Now I would like to style the rest of my application to go with it. I'm interested most in following parts:

Toolbar - I mostly managed to get the colors right on my own, but the VS toolbars are still prettier.
(Context)Menu - VS has the blue menu item focus box replaced with a nice orange one, which gives the application much warmer and friendlier feel.
Main window background - this is one thing which AD didn't get right.

Are these styles somewhere on the web? Or can they be somehow extracted from the VS?

Thanks for any help.

When I had the same purpose, I used Reflector (with BAML Viewer Add-in) and this color editor

The styles and templates of the VS controls are located at the path (Path of VS2010)\Common7\IDE\en\. Necessary file is Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.UI.Internal.resources.dll

If to expand this library in BAML Viewer, there will be many files, but the most useful are listed in the file themes/generic.xaml.

They are:

Styles/MainWindowStyle.xaml - mark-up of the main window.
Styles/CommandMenuStyle.xaml - styles of the menu, the toolbar, the combobox.
Styles/StandardContextMenuStyle.xaml - style of the context menu.

For example, if you open MainWindowsStyle.xaml, you will find this code:

<Setter x:Uid="Setter_26" Property="Background" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static EnvironmentBackgroundGradientKey}}" />

Now install VS Color theme editor, in Visual Studio open Theme -> Customize Colors -> Default.

The key EnvironmentBackgroundGradient has 4 items in the list. It can be written in the following way:

<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="EnvironmentBackgroundGradient" StartPoint="0.5,0" EndPoint="0.5,1">
    <GradientStop Color="#293955"/>
    <GradientStop Color="#35496a" Offset="0.5"/>
    <GradientStop Color="#35496a" Offset="0.5"/>
    <GradientStop Color="#293955" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>

Probably, these colors are explained somewhere in detail, but I haven't found this, so I used Reflector.

Another assemblies that can be useful:

en\Microsoft.VisualStudio.Platform.WindowManagement.resources.dll - styles of the TabControl and DockManager
PrivateAssemblies\Microsoft.VisualStudio.ExtensionsExplorer.UI.dll - selection of a new project

And here is TabControl with VS2010 look that I've implemented earlier. It doesn't have the same functionality, but it looks the same.
