FormBorderStyle.None hide windows bar...

I would like to use the value FormBorderStyle.None for the border of
the form, so I can hide the title bar of my window. But when I set
this property I also get that the windows bar is hidden. I would like
this bar to be shown as my users would use the taskbar to switch to
other programs. I've looked on the internet for a solution, but it
seems that everybody want the opposite (the windows bar hidden).

Thank you in advance for your help

What's the "windows bar"? Maybe setting the form's 'ShowInTaskbar' property
to 'True' will solve the problem.

Setting your form's FormBorderStyle to None shouldn't hide Windows
Taskbar, only your form's title bar and borders.. Maybe your Windows
taskbar was set as "hide automatically" in taskbar settings, and you
may think that your application causes this behaviour...

Thanks,

Just try to set both FormBorderStyle to None and WindowState to Maximized and you will see what he talking about.

Indeed, when I tried those settings, the resulting form does take up my
entire screen (including the Windows Taskbar, which I do not have set to
AutoHide).
