QSplashscreen, Qt.WindowStaysOnTopHint And Title Bar

Hello :)

I'm using a QSplashscreen for the starting of my Application, the problem I'm encountering is that when I'm using the Window Flag Qt.WindowStaysOnTopHint the QSplashscreen stays on top of every other windows but it also shows a Title bar and a frame ( same on Mac Os X and Windows ).
Anyone have an idea of what to do to avoid this ?

Thx,

I guess you set the window flags using QWidget::setWindowFlags:

Code:

---

QSplashScreen splash(pixmap);
splash.setWindowFlags(Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint);

---

This goes wrong, because you reset all other flags, especially Qt::SplashScreen.
You should try:

Code:

---

QSplashScreen splash(pixmap);
splash.setWindowFlags(splash.windowFlags() | Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint);

---

or even simpler:

Code:

---

QSplashScreen splash(pixmap, Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint);

---

because the constructor automatically adds other required flags.

Excellent !
I didn't realised that it was resetting the other flags, but now that make sense. Thanks :)
