Window Border
The Win32 API provides the following border styles.
Style
| Description
| WS_BORDER
| Creates a window with a thin-line border.
| WS_DLGFRAME
| Creates a window with a double border, a style typically used with dialog
boxes. A window with this style cannot have a title bar.
| WS_EX_DLGMODALFRAME
| Creates a window with a double border. Unlike the WS_DLGFRAME style, an
application can also specify the WS_CAPTION style to create a title bar for the
window.
| WS_EX_STATICEDGE
| Creates a window with a three-dimensional border style intended to be used for
items that do not accept user input.
| WS_THICKFRAME
| Creates a window with a sizing border.
|
A window with the WS_OVERLAPPED or WS_POPUPWINDOW style has the WS_BORDER
style by default. One of the other border styles must be combined with the
WS_OVERLAPPED or WS_POPUPWINDOW style to give an overlapped window a different border
style.
If no border style is specified for a window with the WS_POPUP or WS_CHILD
style, the system creates a borderless window. An application can use borderless
child windows to divide the parent window's client area while keeping the
divisions invisible to the user.
