[wpf] WPF C# button style

Here's my attempt. Looks more similar to the OP's sample and provides settable properties for icon (FrameworkElement), title (string) and subtitle (string). The output looks like this:

Here's XAML:

                          <GradientStop Color="#477FA8" Offset="1" />

              <TextBlock x:Name="SubTitle" Text="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}, Path=SubTitle, FallbackValue='Duration: 50 min'}" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" VerticalAlignment="top" FontFamily="Calibri" FontSize="14" Foreground="White" Margin="20,0,0,0" />
            </Grid>
          </Grid>
        </Border>
      </Grid>

            <Setter.Value>
              <LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0.5,0" EndPoint="0.5,1">
                <GradientStop Color="#FF5E5E5E" Offset="0" />
                <GradientStop Color="#FFA4A4A4" Offset="1" />
              </LinearGradientBrush>
            </Setter.Value>
          </Setter>
        </Trigger>
      </ControlTemplate.Triggers>
    </ControlTemplate>
  </Button.Template>
</Button>

Here's the code-behind:

using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;

namespace Controls
{
  public partial class FancyButton : Button
  {
    public FancyButton()
    {
      InitializeComponent();
    }

    public string Title
    {
      get { return (string)GetValue(TitleProperty); }
      set { SetValue(TitleProperty, value); }
    }

    public static readonly DependencyProperty TitleProperty =
        DependencyProperty.Register("Title", typeof(string), typeof(FancyButton), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata("Title", FrameworkPropertyMetadataOptions.AffectsRender));

    public string SubTitle
    {
      get { return (string)GetValue(SubTitleProperty); }
      set { SetValue(SubTitleProperty, value); }
    }

    public static readonly DependencyProperty SubTitleProperty =
        DependencyProperty.Register("SubTitle", typeof(string), typeof(FancyButton), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata("SubTitle", FrameworkPropertyMetadataOptions.AffectsRender));

    public FrameworkElement Image
    {
      get { return (FrameworkElement)GetValue(ImageProperty); }
      set { SetValue(ImageProperty, value); }
    }

    public static readonly DependencyProperty ImageProperty =
        DependencyProperty.Register("Image", typeof(FrameworkElement), typeof(FancyButton), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(null, FrameworkPropertyMetadataOptions.AffectsRender));
  }
}

Here is how to use it:

<controls:FancyButton Grid.Row="1" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Margin="3" Title="Watch Now" SubTitle="Duration: 50 min">
  <controls:FancyButton.Image>
    <Path Data="M0,0 L30,15 L0,30Z">
      <Path.Effect>
        <DropShadowEffect Direction="50" ShadowDepth="2" />
      </Path.Effect>
      <Path.Fill>
        <LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0,0.5" EndPoint="1,0.5">
          <GradientStop Color="#4B86B2" Offset="0" />
          <GradientStop Color="#477FA8" Offset="1" />
        </LinearGradientBrush>
      </Path.Fill>
    </Path>
  </controls:FancyButton.Image>
</controls:FancyButton>
