When I want a window to be transparent I have to set AllowsTransparency to True. When I set this the outer boarder(You know the close and minimize button and all) disappear also. Oh, I am using Blend 3 to do this(Just got it, it's very nice).

A:
AllowsTransparency exists to facilitate the creation of non-rectangular windows, and, consequently, when AllowsTransparency is set to true, a window's WindowStyle property must be set to None.
But still you can enable border by setting WindowStyle property.
BTW: I love Blend 3, its awesome I'm using it from last two weeks

But the AllowsTransparency will unchecked itself. It's like going in a loop, and yes Blend 3 is awesomeeeee.
