Windows 7 windows naturally have a semi-transparent header. What I just realized is that Google Chrome TabBar blends with this effect as if the TabBar background and the window header was the same thing! pretty much cool!
Is there a way to have the same result with WPF? Any example?
Thanks.
You would need to call down to the Desktop Window Manager APIs. See DwmExtendFrameIntoClientArea, or DwmEnableBlurBehindWindow to apply the glass effect only to a specific region. Use new WindowInteropHelper(myWindow).Handle to get the HWND for passing to these APIs.
