GUI + $WS_BORDER

[LithiumLi]

Hello

I am having some troubles with getting a thin GUI effect, I want my GUI to have a small border instead of that really large border but it doesn't seem to be working for me.

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

GUICreate("", 250 , 250 , Default , Default , $WS_BORDER)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
While 1
    $Msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $Msg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd

Like this maby:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

GUICreate("", 250, 250, -1, -1, BitOr($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, $WS_BORDER))
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $Msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $Msg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Also look at this thread.

thank you for trying to help me but that is not what I am looking for or it doesn't seem to be working for me, it is either one of the two, anyways here is a picture of what I want.

I would like it like this "Big" to "Small"

Set the Extended Style to $WS_EX_TOOLwindow.

Set the Extended Style to $WS_EX_TOOLwindow.

This is the effect I wanted, but what is the purpose of

$WS_BORDER
