Qt 5 - How to create a frameless window?

qtd1d1

Hi,

is there any example out there or do you propably know how to create a frameless window in Qt5?
The old way (as shown below) doesn't work.
@myView->setWindowFlags(Qt::FramelessWindowHint)@

the setWindowsFlags function is not available in QQuickView.

Thanks.

QQuickView is not QWidget anymore but QWindow which has setFlags method.

Do you know how to append a QQuickView to a QWindow? Thanks

I am having the same problem, from a QMainWindow widget. In Qt 4, I used:
@setWindowFlags(Qt::Widget | Qt::FramelessWindowHint | Qt::X11BypassWindowManagerHint);@

and this worked great.

In Qt 5, I have tried all combinations of Qt::FramelessWindowHint, Qt::X11BypassWindowManagerHint, Qt::Widget, and Qt::Window, and nothing has worked. This is on X11.

Is there a new window flag in Qt 5 that accomplishes this in Linux, or is there some other way to do this?

Thanks!

Sorry, this one is quite old, but I came to this via a Google search, because I was facing the same problem.

However, I found the solution, by calling

@viewer.setFlags(Qt::FramelessWindowHint)@

viewer is of QtQuick2ApplicationViewer:public QQuickView

setFlags in is QWindow

Hope that helps
