Hi, play around with the Window Flags Example to find a suitable combination of window flags.

hiiiiiiiiiii..............i hv seen the example too..............i don't get apporiate one.
instead just handle the close button by close event.
can any one suggest any better option
thanxx in advance.........

setWindowFlags(Qt::WindowTitleHint);


I think it will work .

Well the first line is overriding the second. If you want to set both you need to OR them together like this.

myform1-> setWindowFlags(Qt::FramelessWindowHint | Qt::WindowTitleHint);

hiiiii....................

i hv tried ur code but becoz of 'or' operator it is working for only one option & taking first one.ie widget become frameless without any title bar. so i replaced or with and ie

myform1-> setWindowFlags(Qt::FramelessWindowHint & Qt::WindowTitleHint);
it show window title bar but problem is again that with all three buttons.

so plz suggest me what shd i do.

thanxx in advance..........

Just try setWindowFlags(Qt::WindowTitleHint);
I didnt get any of the three buttons...
This is my code.. u can try

#include <QApplication>
#include <QLabel>
#include<QMainWindow>
 
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  QApplication app(argc, argv);
 
  QMainWindow *window = new QMainWindow;
  QLabel *label = new QLabel("Hello World!");
 
  window->setCentralWidget(label);
  window->setWindowFlags(Qt::WindowTitleHint);
  window->show();
 
  return app.exec();
}

#include <QApplication>
#include <QLabel>
#include<QMainWindow>

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

  QMainWindow *window = new QMainWindow;
  QLabel *label = new QLabel("Hello World!");

  window->setCentralWidget(label);
  window->setWindowFlags(Qt::WindowTitleHint);
  window->show();

  return app.exec();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

BTW, I am using windows with Qt 4.3.0 on Visual Studio 2005.
Hope it helps u

Try reset flags to 0 first before setting them. It worked for me in Linux.

[techno2007]

hiiii.....................i hv already done this...........but it doesn't effect my code...........

here is my code.................but its not effect i mean show all three buttons..

Qt::WindowFlags flags = 0;
flags |= Qt::FramelessWindowHint;
flags &= Qt::WindowTitleHint;  //even i tried with or also ie
                               //flags|= Qt::WindowTitleHint
myform1->setWindowFlags(flags);

Qt::WindowFlags flags = 0;
flags |= Qt::FramelessWindowHint;
flags &= Qt::WindowTitleHint;  //even i tried with or also ie
                               //flags|= Qt::WindowTitleHint
myform1->setWindowFlags(flags);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

so what shd i do.............
