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.
