My assumption is that it is impossible. However, I believe you can hide the toolbar like this:

then resize and position the window where you want it. However, I'm not sure how to make the background transparent. Here is my best effort.

I wouldn't be so sure. It is may well be impossible in DB. If there is a way around it then I would be very interested to see but as far as I can make out, the pic I posted is as close as DB can get.

'gamemaker' can do it,someone made a dll for it.if gm can do this,im pretty sure dbp should be able to.im not going to argue about it not being possible.its obvious noone is going to make a dll for this,so just forget it.
