FramelessHelper

Usage

Copy winnativeeventfilter.h and winnativeeventfilter.cpp to your project and use WinNativeEventFilter::install(); or WinNativeEventFilter::addFramelessWindow(reinterpret_cast<HWND>(myWidget->winId())); before any windows (widgets and Qt Quick windows) show up, just like what the example project does.

Notice

  • Any widgets (or Qt Quick elements) in the titlebar area will not be resposible because the mouse events are intercepted. Try if WinNativeEventFilter::setWindowData() helps.
  • Don't change the window flags (for example, enable the Qt::FramelessWindowHint flag) because it will break the functionality of this code. I'll get rid of the window frame (including the titlebar of course) in Win32 native events.
  • All traditional Win32 APIs are replaced by their DPI-aware ones, if there is one.
  • Start from Windows 10, normal windows usually have a one pixel width border line, I don't add it because not everyone like it. You can draw one manually if you really need it.
  • The frame shadow will get lost if the window is totally transparent. It can't be solved unless you draw the frame shadow manually.
  • On Windows 7, if you disabled the Windows Aero, the frame shadow will be disabled as well because it's DWM's resposibility to draw the frame shadow.
  • Only top level windows can be frameless. Applying this code to child windows or widgets will result in unexpected behavior.
  • The border width (8 if not scaled), border height (8 if not scaled) and titlebar height (30/38 if not scaled) are acquired by Win32 APIs and are the same with other standard windows, and thus you should not modify them.
  • You can also copy all the code to [virtual protected] bool QWidget::nativeEvent(const QByteArray &eventType, void *message, long *result) or [virtual protected] bool QWindow::nativeEvent(const QByteArray &eventType, void *message, long *result), it's the same with install a native event filter to the application.
  • For UNIX platforms, things are much easier. Just use the startSystemMove and startSystemResize APIs introduced in Qt 5.15.
