Can I use the Office 2007 window style?

I like the border of the Office 2007 window (as it looks in Windows XP). Is there a way to use this same border in my WPF application?

It might be included in RibbonX, however the whole package seems to be heavy on my application when I only want to have the same border style.

If none of this is possible, can anyone give me some advice on how to create a custom border in WPF. Couldn't find much useful information on this topic.

thanks

You may find this article to be of interest as it shows you how to use Windows style to get Office 2007 results.



It has a sample source project with XAML that demonstrates rounded window corners and window gradients.

You can get the free beta version of the Office Ribbon directly from Microsoft. I have already used WPF program. It's not that hard if you get used to it and it's fun. Perhaps this will help you with what you mean.
