Hi,

You could try this, but it cannot be a Main typed window:

Make a window typed "popup", "child" or "response" and uncheck the title bar in the properties.

You then simulate your own title bar with a static text.

Your window cannot be a sheet or main and of course, this won't allow you to drag the window to a different position by dragging on the title bar anymore, so it might not be what you want.

As an alternative, I'm pretty sure there'll be some windows API function that allows you to remove the title bar.

yep, like this:

Hi Steen;

  I would be interested in that feature too!

  As an alternative, how about being able to add User Objects to any menu toolbar area. My framework does this automatically if a UO pointer is provided. The UO can contain as many child UO's in it as well AND the approach seems to be "Themable "(my new word for today) in my testing  ;-)

Normal:

Themed:

Food for thought. HTH

Ultimate Suite for PowerBuilder contains window objects that have a custom caption.

https://www.pbultimatesuite.com/EN/modernize-pb-interface/single-page-application.html

Having buttons in the caption is one of the options.

What you need to do is turn off the title bar and add a statictext control that looks like the title bar and add all the buttons yourself.

To be able to drag a window without the standard title bar, you can add this code to the mousedown event:

CONSTANT uint WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN = 161
CONSTANT uint HTCAPTION = 2

Post(Handle(this), WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, HTCAPTION, Long(xpos, ypos))

Apps/suites like MS Office (and presumably, PB Ultimate Suite) are able to provide these features only by taking over the complete responsibility for rendering the appearance and for managing the behavior of the window's caption from the Windows O/S, because Windows doesn't provide a convenient means of doing this. Since the Windows O/S doesn't offer this capability, PB also does not currently provide a means of accomplishing the same. Thus, you'll have to "roll your own" via the standard visual controls that are available, as Roland suggests.

Thanks Roland .. love it :-)

will implement
