BorderBrush

The Borders of the resizable window can be painted by using the ResizeBorderBrush property.

To set the ResizeBorderBrush property, use the below code

XAML

<syncfusion:ChromelessWindow x:Class="Chromelesswindow.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="ChromelessWindow" Height="350" Width="525" ResizeBorderBrush="Maroon" syncfusion:SkinStorage.VisualStyle="Metro"     
x:Name="_chromelessWindow"    xmlns:syncfusion="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Windows.Shared;assembly=Syncfusion.Shared.WPF" >
<Grid>
</Grid>
</syncfusion:ChromelessWindow>

C#

this.ResizeBorderBrush = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Maroon);

VB.NET

Me.ResizeBorderBrush = New SolidColorBrush(Colors.Maroon)

BorderThickness

To set the thickness for the Resizable border, use ResizableBorderThickness property of the ChromelessWindow. This property virtually sets the region for the resize pointer to appear. Hence, greater the region, easier it is to resize.

To set this property, use the following code.

XAML

<syncfusion:ChromelessWindow x:Class="Chromelesswindow.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="ChromelessWindow" Height="350" Width="525" ResizeBorderThickness="8"  syncfusion:SkinStorage.VisualStyle="Metro"     
x:Name="_chromelessWindow"    xmlns:syncfusion="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Windows.Shared;assembly=Syncfusion.Shared.WPF" >
<Grid>
</Grid>
</syncfusion:ChromelessWindow>

C#

this.ResizeBorderThickness = new Thickness(8);

VB.NET

Me.ResizeBorderThickness = New Thickness(8)
