I am trying to create a simple Qt UI with a frameless window and rounded corners. Starting from a new project with the QtQuick 2 Application template, my code looks like this:
main.cpp
#include <QtGui/QGuiApplication>
#include "qtquick2applicationviewer.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);
QtQuick2ApplicationViewer viewer;
viewer.setMainQmlFile(QStringLiteral("qml/qtquick-test/main.qml"));
viewer.setFlags(Qt::FramelessWindowHint);
viewer.showExpanded();
return app.exec();
}
main.qml
import QtQuick 2.0
Rectangle {
width: 360
height: 360
radius: 10
color: "red"
Text {
text: qsTr("Hello World")
anchors.centerIn: parent
}
MouseArea {
anchors.fill: parent
onClicked: {
Qt.quit();
}
}
}
And this is the result:
What I wan't to do is get rid of the white corners, by making the main window transparent. However, as far as I can tell there is no way in Qt5 to do this, because we don't have stylesheets, etc and I am not using a QtWidget. Should I use a QtWidget?
Btw, I'm new to Qt and Qt5.
