How would one go about it? GetClientRect gets you the relative rect and GetWindowRect gets the bounding rect in absolute coordinates. Is there a way to get the dimensions of the window border? Thank you

To get the window border dimensions, you should see the GetSystemMetrics API function. But I think you're more looking for ScreenToClient and ClientToScreen .
