.NET Forum / Windows Forms / WinForm General / February 2006Hide system menu
I want to hide the system menu (the dropdown for the icon on the left) without hiding the entire titlebar for my form. I haven't been able to accomplish this. Is this possible, and if so how? Lance Johnson Lance, Look at the ControlBox property. Setting this property to false will hide the system menu; the caption will stay there as long as there is some text for it. If there is not text the caption bar will disappear. You can also try to play with different border styles. FixedDialog for example doesn't have icon.

Other border style without icon but X button are tool windows, but they have thinner caption.
