System info desklet

Post by monteiro »

Good morning guys.
I'm trying to create an application similar to the late superkaramba.
I would like it to work in both KDE and Gnome and for the form to be completely transparent.
I'm using Gnome 45 and at least in it, even using the transparency and borderless options, the top bar of the window is still visible.
The idea is that the window reacts to a right mouse click by showing a menu of options, closing and moving the window between them.
Has anyone ever done something similar? Any idea?

To open a form with no top bar you make it borderless.
I have many programs that have windows with no top bar working on every system.

Form1.Border = False

If that does not work then there is an error in your code or your system somewhere.

Post a test application that shows and explains the problem.
If at first you don't succeed , try doing something differently.
