NSWindow subclass with support to custom titlebar height, background color and title color

This project is not under active development anymore.

There are better ways to customize windows on modern macOS (using full size content view or customizing the titlebar view).

grcustomizablewindow's Issues

Is not correctly displayed on High Sierra

Hi, the window on High Sierra is not correctly displayed.
Please fix.
Thank you.

Please provide a way to hide/show window title bar

Hi, excellent code, thanks a lot for this. Would it be possible to add an easy way to properly show/hide window title bar, potentially with a fade in/out animation the same way FaceTime on Mac does it?

I have tried setting titleBarHeight to 0 and it works nicely except couple of things.

1/ Window frame looses rounded corners (please see screenshots below)
2/ There is no easy way to animate it

I'd be happy to send in pull request if you give me some guidance as to how it should be properly implemented, I'm a bit lost in the whole theme frame things....

Also, would this be Mac AppStore safe?

thanks,
Martin

Doesn't work well on Yosemite

Yosemite changed the way windows are drawn, so the custom drawing doesn't look right, especially the title bar part.

can not run this project,many errors!

NSColor secondaryLabelColor and labelColor methods no define!
[NSColor secondaryLabelColor]
[NSColor labelColor]

Similar projects for Windows/Linux(GTK)?

Hey!

This is one very great subclass of NSWindow that I really like - which will make me use it in some future projects.
But as my app is cross-platform, I was just wanting to ask if oyu know of similar possibilities for Windows, or GTK?

Kind regards,
Ingwie!
