I would like to know how to create an application in Windows that does not have the default border; particularly the title bar with minimize, maximize, and close buttons. I\
I found an example that answered my question here. overrideredirect(1) is the key function.
I like this method because I'm familiar with Tk and preferred a Tk solution, but see the other answers for alternate solutions.
import tkMessageBox
from Tkinter import *
class App():
def __init__(self):
self.root = Tk()
self.root.overrideredirect(1)
self.frame = Frame(self.root, width=320, height=200,
borderwidth=2, relief=RAISED)
self.frame.pack_propagate(False)
self.frame.pack()
self.bQuit = Button(self.frame, text="Quit",
command=self.root.quit)
self.bQuit.pack(pady=20)
self.bHello = Button(self.frame, text="Hello",
command=self.hello)
self.bHello.pack(pady=20)
def hello(self):
tkMessageBox.showinfo("Popup", "Hello!")
app = App()
app.root.mainloop()
Just need to add your own kill button or quit method.
