ControlzEx is a WPF control and behavior library focused on improving desktop window experiences. It provides shared controls, helpers, and behaviors for applications that need more polished WPF interfaces. A major part of the project is its custom window chrome support, which lets developers draw inside the full window area, including the title bar. It also includes fixes and enhancements for resizing, taskbar behavior, focus visuals, tooltips, and Windows 11 window styling. The library is especially useful for teams building professional WPF apps that need modern shell behavior. It supports both .NET Framework and newer .NET versions.
