Question

Pardon me, I am a newbie 🙂

Is it possible in Qt to create a custom window without borders but still draggable without holding down the Alt Key? I created a borderless window but in order to be able to drag it (on Linux) you have to hold down the alt key.

I was planning to create a window with rounded corners. Any one have any idea how to make this possible? Although, I think implementing the mouseMove, mousePress or something is a possible solution but I need some other solution.

Thanks

There is just one way to make the window manager move the window: Add a drag bar. If there is no drag bar, then your app must move the window itself by setting the new position (i.e. you must handle the mouse click+move events yourself).

The feature to move the window by pressing Alt is also a function of your window manager, not Qt.
