May be this QSkinObject example help you

[Iskander]

aamer4yu, thanks, I'll look at it.

aamer4yu, I tried to use qskinobject, but when I enable skins in example, widgets start blinking.

I almost finished emulation of moving and resizig, but when Qt::SplashScreen flag, there is no application on a task bar. How to remove system windows decorations, and save precense on a task bar?

You can inherit from QDialog and overload the paint method.

Of course I inherits from QWidget and all my windows inherts from my "skinned widget". But in paint method it is impossible to draw system windows borders.

Didn't I tell you that like... 7 posts ago? They are called "system borders" for a reason. All you can do is disable them by passing Qt::FramelessWindowHint hint to your widget.

You can't. At least not without diving into native API although I think in this particular case it wouldn't help.

So should I do something like this?

#if defined(Q_WS_WIN)
  .... 
#endif
 
#if defined(Q_WS_X11)
  .... 
#endif

#if defined(Q_WS_WIN)
  .... 
#endif

#if defined(Q_WS_X11)
  .... 
#endif

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

sadly.

And, as I understand, under linux behaviour depends from current DE settings...

May be it is possible to use QDesktopServices, do you know?

Well, I think about creating a widget out of display region, and in focusInEvent make my "skinned" widget focused, but I think, it's too dirty hack...

[wysota]

What would desktop services have to do with that? What is exactly that you want to obtain?

[Iskander]

Sorry for my english.

I want to use my own systems borders(1). So I set Qt::FramelessWindowHint flag.
But there is no my apllication on the task panel in that way.(2)
I want something like winamp - but skin systems does not requiered.


I read QDesktopServices docs, and not found anything, relative to my problem, it serves for desctop enviroment, not for task bar, so sorry for my question
