Using VS2010 Image Library when image contains more than one icon

I'd like to create a button containing an image (remove) from the VS2010 Image Library in WPF (...\_Common Elements\Actions\remove.png). This image actually contains four versions of the icon in different sizes. How do I go about using the first one of these?

Thanks,

Chris

I think that the files in the _Common Elements are meant to be used when creating or composing new icons, so you don't have to recreate the, well, common elements for each icon. Because of that, whenever I needed one of the icons from this, I just copied the one I needed into a new image and used that.

Read the readme files in the directory you want to use images from. For example it states in _Common Elements\Objects\_MSCommonElements_Objects - Readme.html (rough translation from my German version):

These common elements are supposed to be used during development and design of new custom icons.
