Description
I've changed all windows to use `MetroWindow` and also have this in my `App.Xaml` file:
```xaml
```
There isn't much documentation anywhere, however some of my controls are not styling correctly:
Toolbars for example:

also combo boxes:

and a few others. I'm wondering if there's something I'm missing or if someone can direct me to more detailed documentation?
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the App.Xaml resource dictionaries named in the issue, especially the VS colors and controls files, and compare their effect on the reported toolbars and combo boxes. Done would be a clear explanation of the required Visual Studio-style resources and any unsupported or additionally configured controls, backed by documentation or a reproducible example.
