Hi dodoo,

 

it's very hard to tell, what you mean by "rough border" on these blurry JPGs...

 

Anyway:

It's a Windows© thing to get a small inner border on "default" windows. Each modal window will get this border removed! That's not a special LabVIEW setting, it's part of the OS!

Best regards,
GerdW

thank you GerdW, 

but why other exe build by VB,VC or other language will not looks like Labview EXE,  I think this is  A defect  of  labview.

Internet Explorera  and all other EXE build by VB, VC or other develpment environment  don't have this "small inner border",but all LABVIW EXE have this "small inner border" if set default windows.

Hi dodoo,

 

see here for an old discussion on this topic...

 

Does those 2px frame really make up a "very different" look?

Best regards,
GerdW

It's important to remember that LabVIEW, in order to be cross-platform compatible, uses it's own window drawing scheme and not Microsoft's. All of the other applications you mention do. Personally, I think the differences are minor and not worth mentioning or caring about.
