How can I remove the borders/control box from a WPF Form?

Question

In Windows Form, I would modify the FormBorderStyle property in the Properties pane.

Any help?

Answer 1

Set WindowStyle to None, and ResizeMode to NoResize (either in XAML or through the Properties pane).

Answer 2

Creating a splash screen is actually supported by the .NET framework, check out this form post on social.msdn.microsoft.com which points you to this walkthrough for the most performant .NET splash screen.

You can designate an image as a splashscreen using the properties window.
