How to create two non-classical windows in qml?

spode

hi. i created a new QtQuick project. now, in main.qml file i made a window, for istance:

Rectangle{ width: 200; height: 100; ... }

how do i create another window, separated from the last one? how do i delete the "x" (close), the "_" to minimize and the other one from the window?

I am quite a newbie, but I think that Rectangle will draw a Rectangle, not a window. the window is created in your main.c file, if you have one! The main window often (and maybe always) is a QDeclarativeView.
So to get rid of the system controls (X and _ thing), you can play with the windows style flags, or hints.
I personnally used this in my main.c file:

@QDeclarativeView view;
view.setWindowFlags(Qt::FramelessWindowHint);@

And with these lines I have no window border and therefore no window system controls.
Hope this helps a bit,
Bill

nothing, but thank you for interest! ;)

Currently there is no support for multiple windows in pure QML. To create multiple windows, you'll have to create multiple top-level QDeclarativeViews (or another widget).

[code]#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include "qmlapplicationviewer.h"
#include <QLabel>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);

QmlApplicationViewer viewer;
viewer.setOrientation(QmlApplicationViewer::ScreenOrientationAuto);
viewer.setMainQmlFile&#40;QLatin1String("qml/file/main.qml"&#41;);
viewer.showExpanded();
viewer.setWindowTitle("title");
viewer.move(600,20);
QDeclarativeView view;
view.setWindowFlags(Qt::FramelessWindowHint);

return app.exec();

}
[/code]
this one does not start...

You didn't call show on the view widget. And even then, you haven't set a QML file for it to load.
