A cross-platform frameless window based on PyQt5
To install use pip:
pip install PyQt5-Frameless-Window
Or clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/zhiyiYo/PyQt-Frameless-Window.git
python setup.py install
Platform | Requirement |
---|---|
Win32 | pywin32 |
Linux | xcffib |
MacOS | pyobjc |
To use the frameless window, you only need to inherit FramelessWindow
or FramelessMainWindow
. Here is a minimal example:
import sys
from PyQt5.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.

FramelessWindow
provides a default custom title bar. If you don't like it, just rewrite it as demo.py does.

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 PySide2, PySide6 or PyQt6, you can download the code in PySide2, PySide6 or PyQt6 branch.
