Displaying wpf content over/outside main window bounds
I am trying to achieve an effect of overlapping the main window boundary with a control. It's hard to explain this in words which is also maybe why I am having difficulty finding information on how to do this or if it is even possible.
Below is an example of the effect I am trying to get (from the designer), where the "note" objects float outside the bounds of the main window.
However the effect I get at runtime is this (below), the inner controls are clipped by the boundary of the main window.
Can someone please tell me if this is possible (or not), and if it is maybe some suggestions about how I could get this effect.
I don't think there's a way to draw outside the bounds of a window. However, you could simply create a new window for the note control and align it to your main window.
