WPF includes the title bar height in the total window height instead of using only the client content area height.

  • Is there a way to disable this behaviour?
  • If not, how can I get the height of a tool window title bar?

I’m aware of the SystemParameters.CaptionHeight property and the SystemParameters.WindowCaptionHeight property but they both return the height of a regular window title bar. This is not the correct value for a tool window because the title bar is smaller for this type of window. I need something like SystemParameters.ToolWindowCaptionHeight

Thanks.

    You could fall back to System.Windows.Forms.SystemInformation.ToolWindowCaptionHeight. Although it is in the WinForms namespace, it is hardly a WinForms only class.
