Title bar not hidden #432

Open lennartack opened 2 months ago

lennartack commented 2 months ago

I'm on Debian 12.5 and Mate 1.26. When I run tdrop it creates a normal window with a title bar and an entry in the window list.

I want the title bar to be removed and the window to not appear in the window list on mate-panel.

I want the title bar to be removed and the window to not appear in the window list on mate-panel.

Is that something you can do normally without tdrop and how if so?

@noctuid Thanks for your reply.

I think so. Other dropdown terminals such as guake do it. I found a way to remove the title bar with tdrop:

tdrop -h "50%" -P 'xprop -id $(xdotool getactivewindow) -format _MOTIF_WM_HINTS 32c -set _MOTIF_WM_HINTS 2; xdotool windowmove $(xdotool getactivewindow) 0 0' -s dropdown alacritty

But it doesn't work great. As you can see I need to move the window again to the top just after removing the title bar, which is visible.

Example of desired behaviour with guake: Screenshot at 2024-05-05 19-59-35

tdrop default on my system: Screenshot at 2024-05-05 20-01-17 So this is expected behaviour?
