    thanks

    af260e6b-83bc-4dd7-bac3-99f04c4fba50-image.png

    void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked()
    {
        // ----- Hide old Window and show new window ----- //
         hide();
         FramelessWindow * framelessWindow2 = new FramelessWindow ;
         // style our application with custom dark style
         setStyle(new DarkStyle);
         //framelessWindow.setWindowState(Qt::WindowMaximized);
         framelessWindow2->setWindowTitle("test");
         framelessWindow2->setWindowIcon(QIcon(":/png/sr-removebg-preview.png"));
    
         // create our mainwindow instance
         MainWindow2 *mainwindow2 = new MainWindow2;
    
         // add the mainwindow to our custom frameless window
         framelessWindow2->setContent(mainwindow2);
         framelessWindow2->show();
    }

      The other empty one, is that from you create 2 in main.cpp or
      do you only create one there?

          Ok i think we need to hide the parent too.
          instead of
          // ----- Hide old Window and show new window ----- //
          hide();
          try
          parentWidget()->hide();
          to hide the framelss instead of the MainWIn we put inside.

              Hmm so apparently the FrameLess is not the actual parent. must be a holding frame or something.
              (i dont have it installed )

              try
              if (parentWidget()->parentWidget())
              parentWidget()->parentWidget()->hide();

              and see if thats enough :)

                      Hmm very odd. I think it might be something stil from FrameLess but not sure what it is.

                          Hi
                          Im pretty sure all of it can be hidden as its just widgets but not sure
                          what that invisible caption really is.
                          inside it just does
                          ui->windowContent->layout()->addWidget(w);

                          so parentWidget()->parentWidget()->hide(); should do it but
                          maybe there is something else it creates like maybe the fake caption we can see of something like that.

                              Dont worry, we will nail it.

                              replace

                              if (parentWidget()->parentWidget())
                              parentWidget()->parentWidget()->hide();
                              

                              with

                                auto w = parentWidget();
                                  while ( w ) {
                                      w->hide();
                                      w = w->parentWidget();
                                  }
                              

                              this hides the sample it comes with. Nothing in alt+tab after. So i cross fingers :)

                                replace

                                if (parentWidget()->parentWidget())
                                parentWidget()->parentWidget()->hide();
                                

                                with

                                  auto w = parentWidget();
                                    while ( w ) {
                                        w->hide();
                                        w = w->parentWidget();
                                    }
                                

                                this hides the sample it comes with. Nothing in alt+tab after. So i cross fingers :)
