I use WindowChrome to customize a Window. When I maximize the Window, then the edges are out of the screen. I use the following code to fix this:

<Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.MainWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">

    <WindowChrome.WindowChrome>
        <WindowChrome CaptionHeight="50" CornerRadius="0" GlassFrameThickness="0" NonClientFrameEdges="None" ResizeBorderThickness="5" UseAeroCaptionButtons="False" />
    </WindowChrome.WindowChrome>

    <Grid>  
        <Grid.Style>
            <Style TargetType="{x:Type Grid}">
                <Setter Property="Margin" Value="0" />
                <Style.Triggers>
                    <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type Window}}, Path=WindowState}" Value="Maximized">
                        <Setter Property="Margin" Value="{x:Static SystemParameters.WindowResizeBorderThickness}" />
                    </DataTrigger>
                </Style.Triggers>
            </Style>
        </Grid.Style>
        <Border BorderThickness="2" BorderBrush="Blue" Background="Yellow" />
    </Grid>

</Window>

My problem: How can I get the correct number of pixels, so that the edges are not out of the screen.

SystemParameters.WindowResizeBorderThickness contains not the correct value.
