    Default Windows taksbar autohide and fullscreen frameless window

    Hi,
    I currently have an issue with handling a frameless window. All windows in my app are frameless windows, with nice style and stuff. To maximize, i use
    Qt Code:
    1. QDesktopWidget *screen = QApplication::desktop();
    2. window->showMaximized();
    3. window->setGeometry( screen.availableGeometry() );
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    This works good, window does not overlap the windows taskbar.
    The problem comes when the windows taskbar's autohide setting is set. In this case, having the window fullscreen prevents the taskbar to show as expected.

    Is there any workaround to get this working ?

    Regards,
    Márwyn

    Why don't you use showFullScreen?

    use the setGeometry and set QApplication::desktop()->geometry to fullscreen your widgets.
