How to create VS2013 like frameless window with dark style

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.

@mrjj there is anything i can do with it?
this framelees is really good but if only i can fix this problem

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 :)
