Example

Code Sample (Menu bar only)

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication

from pyqt_custom_titlebar_window import CustomTitlebarWindow

from pyqt_dark_calculator import Calculator



if __name__ == "__main__":

  import sys



  app = QApplication(sys.argv)

  customTitlebarWindow = CustomTitlebarWindow(Calculator())

  # customTitlebarWindow.setButtonHint(hint=['close'])

  # customTitlebarWindow.setButtonStyle(style='Mac')

  customTitlebarWindow.setButtons()

  customTitlebarWindow.show()

As you see, existing corner widget doesn't matter.

Code Sample (Including title bar)

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication

from pyqt_custom_titlebar_window import CustomTitlebarWindow

from pyqt_dark_notepad import DarkNotepad



if __name__ == "__main__":

  import sys



  app = QApplication(sys.argv)

  window = DarkNotepad()

  customTitlebarWindow = CustomTitlebarWindow(window)

  customTitlebarWindow.setTopTitleBar(icon_filename='dark-notepad.svg')

  # customTitlebarWindow.setButtonHint(['close'])

  # customTitlebarWindow.setButtonStyle(style='Mac')

  customTitlebarWindow.setButtons()

  customTitlebarWindow.show()

  app.exec_()
