[yeaiping]

I want a waiting Dialog, an how to create non button on dialog window?

Now, my methods is hook the close event. It's goes well, but it's confuse users.

Have you try using the @void setWindowFlags ( Qt::WindowFlags type )@

[giesbert]

Its the correct function, the usage is the following:

• "QWidget::setWindowFlags":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qwidget.html#windowFlags-prop
• "Qt::WindowsFlags":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qt.html#WindowType-enum

@
MyDialog::MyDialog(QWidget* pParent) :
QDialog(pParent, Qt::CustomizeWindowHint | Qt::WindowTitleHint | Qt::WindowMinMaxButtonsHint )
{
}
@

I don't remember if you have any flag to dissable the close button, but in that scenario, you could apply the:
Qt::FramelessWindow
Flag in the initialization of the QDialog parent, and that will allow you to dismiss the NonClient Area (titlebar, the window borders), in that case you have to provide a way to close the window.

Regards!

FramelessWindow removes the complete frame

Qt::CustomizeWindowHint says: i say what to display. If you don't set Qt::WindowSystemMenuHint or Qt::WindowCloseButtonHint, the close button should be away but you have a title bar, window frame etc.

I think this removes only the close button

@dialog->setWindowFlags( ( (dialog->windowFlags() | Qt::CustomizeWindowHint)
& ~Qt::WindowCloseButtonHint) );@

[giesbert]

no it removes everything, also max and min button.
windows flags does not contain min/m ax hint by default, as they are only needed if Qt::CustomizeWindowHint is used.

Thanks, your methods is fantancy. But's a little flaw. the Min button and Max button not hint.

[giesbert]

if you don't want m in/max button, remove them from the flas.

Haha, yes. It's fine. Thanks all.

@giesbert said in How to hide the dialog window close button?:

if you don't want m in/max button, remove them from the flas.

You mean like this?
: QDialog(parent, Qt::CustomizeWindowHint | Qt::WindowTitleHint )
That does not work, the min/max buttons, i.e. the small arrows on the right hand side, are still there. I have tried various combinations of flags, but I cannot get rid of those arrows. I don't want to remove the top panel.
