Is there anyway to remove / deactivate the minimize, close, and max button from a Processing window?

Person1000

Hello fellow Processing users,

A bit of backstory: I use a custom menu bar and it would be cool to be able to remove / deactivate the default minimize, close, and maximize buttons.

Is there anyway this can be done?

Thanks for your help.

You can run the sketch in "sketch" then "present"

Hello, I did not know that - thanks for the tip. Is there anyway to achieve what I asked though? If not, I will use that a solution.

Cheers

Thanks for your help, most of the window changes don't seem to work on the latest version of Processing.

Try this below from: https://forum.processing.org/two/search?Search=setUndecorated

PSurface initSurface() {
  PSurface pSurface = super.initSurface();
  ( (SmoothCanvas) ((PSurfaceAWT)surface).getNative()).getFrame().setUndecorated(true);
  return pSurface;
}

*****EDIT: Current solution: https://forum.processing.org/two/discussion/20499/moving-a-translucent-window-around-the-screen/p1

import processing.awt.PSurfaceAWT.SmoothCanvas;
import com.sun.awt.AWTUtilities;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JRootPane;

JFrame jframe;

static final JFrame getJFrame(final PSurface surf) {
  return (JFrame) ((SmoothCanvas) surf.getNative()).getFrame();
}



void setup() {
  size(500, 500);
  jframe = getJFrame(getSurface());

  jframe.removeNotify();
  jframe.setUndecorated(true);
  jframe.addNotify();

   .....

}
