Question

i am trying to get rid of button border and only display text, however a thin line around the text gets displayed even though i set borderThickness to 0 and borderbrush to transparent.

my xaml code for save button:

<Button Content="save" Name="btnSaveEditedText" 
                Background="Transparent" 
                Foreground="White" 
                FontFamily="Tw Cen MT Condensed" 
                FontSize="30" 
                Margin="-280,0,0,10"
                Width="60"
                BorderBrush="Transparent"
                BorderThickness="0"/>

Is there anyway i can get rid of the button border?

You need to override the ControlTemplate of the Button:

<Button Content="save" Name="btnSaveEditedText" 
                Background="Transparent" 
                Foreground="White" 
                FontFamily="Tw Cen MT Condensed" 
                FontSize="30" 
                Margin="-280,0,0,10"
                Width="60"
                BorderBrush="Transparent"
                BorderThickness="0">
    <Button.Template>
        <ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
             <ContentPresenter Content="{TemplateBinding Content}"/>
        </ControlTemplate>
    </Button.Template>
</Button>
