Based off https://github.com/zhiyiYo/PyQt-Frameless-Window but migrated to PySide6.
New features:
- Merged MenuBar and TitleBar (hidden by default)
- Added centered title label, set with
Window.setWindowTitle
- Move
- Stretching
- Window animation
- Window shadow
- Win10 acrylic blur
- Win11 mica blur
- Win7 Aero blur
- MacOS blur
To install use pip:
pip install PySide6-Frameless-Window
Or clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/rayzchen/PySide6-Frameless-Window
python setup.py install
Platform | Requirement |
---|---|
Win32 | pywin32 |
Linux | xcffib |
MacOS | pyobjc |
To use the frameless window, you only need to inherit FramelessWindow
. Here is a minimal example:
import sys
from PySide6.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, you can refer to the demo.py.
-
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.
-
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 or PyQt6, you can download the code in PySide2 or PyQt6 branch, but they only support Win32 and macOS at present.
Here are some projects that use PyQt-Frameless-Window:
- zhiyiYo/Groove: A cross-platform music player based on PyQt5
- zhiyiYo/Alpha-Gobang-Zero: A gobang robot based on reinforcement learning
- tonquer/picacg-qt: PicACG PC Client
- wangwenx190/framelesshelper: Frameless windows for Qt Widgets and Qt Quick applications. Support Win32, X11, Wayland and macOS
- libxcb: Basic Graphics Programming With The XCB Library
