    void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked()

         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.

                      you think there is no way to fix that?

                        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 :)

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