Requirements
Platform | Requirement |
---|---|
Win32 | pywin32 |
MacOS | pyobjc |
Usage
To use the frameless window, you only need to inherit FramelessWindow
. Here is a minimal example:
import sys
from PySide2.QtWidgets import QApplication
from qframelesswindow import FramelessWindow
class Window(FramelessWindow):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super().__init__(parent=parent)
self.setWindowTitle("PyQt-Frameless-Window")
self.titleBar.raise_()
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
demo = Window()
demo.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
For more complex requirements, see demo.py and main_window.py.
Examples
- Normal frameless window
- Acrylic frameless window

Notes
-
FramelessWindow
provides a default custom title bar. If you don't like it, just rewrite it as demo.py does. -
Moving the acrylic window on Win10 may get stuck. At present, there is no good solution. Maybe you can disable the acrylic effect when moving the window, but I haven't done this in the source code.
-
Snap layout is not enabled by default. See #56 to learn how to enable it.
-
If you encounter this problem on Windows:
ImportError: DLL load failed while importing win32api
see my answer on stackoverflow or my blog for the solution.
-
If you are using PyQt5, PyQt6 or PySide6, you can download the code in PyQt5 or PyQt6 or PySide6 branch.
