With the help of tkinter window/frame, we can show image or video without any border and title bar. what we have to do is, make tkinter window transparent. I am putting my code below, which shows webcam video without borders and title bar in any size.

import numpy as np
import cv2
from tkinter import *
#import tkinter as tk
from PIL import Image, ImageTk
import sys

window = Tk()  #Makes main window
window.overrideredirect(True)
window.wm_attributes("-topmost", True)
window.geometry("+600+200")
display1 = Label(window)
display1.grid(row=1, column=0, padx=0, pady=0)  #Display 1
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)

def show_frame():
    _, frame = cap.read()
    frame = cv2.resize(frame, (400,400))
    #frame = cv2.flip(frame, 1)
    cv2image = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGBA)
    img = Image.fromarray(cv2image)
    imgtk = ImageTk.PhotoImage(master = display1, image=img)
    display1.imgtk = imgtk #Shows frame for display 1
    display1.configure(image=imgtk)
    
    window.after(10, show_frame)

show_frame()
window.mainloop()

frame = cv2.resize(frame, (400,400)) this is use to resize our frame.

Windows where images are displayed in OpenCV are implemented in HighGUI module using either OpenGL or Qt. You can modify a bit what will be shown to the user (depends on system also), but i think what you're trying to achive is not possible in OpenCV.

Here is list of all flags you can use while creating new window/widget in OpenCV. Unfortunately there is no flag to hide title bar like it is in full-screen mode. Why? It's not important to OpenCV users. They are using imshow just to see the results, mainly for debugging purposes, so they don't need to remove title-bars.

What you can do? Link your program with Qt framework and display image using Qt directly, not throught the wrapper. This might be helpful.
