BorderlessForm

Implements a borderless window using Windows Forms that uses normal controls to preserve the functionality of sizable windows such as:

  • Move by dragging the title bar
  • Size by dragging the borders and corners
  • Maximize, minimize, and close buttons
  • System menu
  • Double click title bar to maximize
  • Aero snap

The window decoration controls in the example are simple labels and can be changed to provide a custom look.

Example

Unsupported:

  • Border shadow ("glow"). Office 2013 and Visual Studio 2013 implement this using 4 additional top level windows that keep in sync with the main window's size and position.
