AnswerRe: Glass Border on Borderless Window Pin

This will not be easy.

You first have to make your form, borderless and no title bar, larger than the visible window you want to show. The form should be the same size as the visible window plus the border. You're also going to have to handle events and mouse clicks to make your "simluated" window respond the same as a normal window.

The Glass concept is pretty straight forward. Grab a snapshot of the screen, then use that to calculate the "smear" you see in the glass border, painting that image to a bitmap the size around your window, with the thickness you want. Then draw the border and then the visible window just inside the border. Done!

In concept, it's pretty easy. In practice, you'll be in for a nasty fight to get it to work properly.

And, no, I don't know of any examples...
