Hi Sujan,

I had thought fromWinId was restricted to only hosting third-party window drawing libraries in your own process space, but it is more powerful than that.

setCentalWidget parents your external window within the QMainWindow.  Maybe that tells Windows not to draw the top-level window frame, including the title bar and system menu.  I'm not clear what you mean about the app menu bar.

To workaround it, I would keep the reference returned by createWindowContainer without putting it in your layout, and place a dummy transparent widget in the central area instead.  You'll need to coordinate the size information and events between the external widget and the dummy widget - lookup sizeHint and resizeEvent.  Good luck!

Regards, Tony

Dear Tony

Thanks for your answer. first of all I am not repeating the question here. It is still a single thread. I am sorry for that.

finally I am still stuck with it. If you or any one could help me I will highly appreciate it.

My code snippet as follows.

QWindow*window=newQWindow;//
window=QWindow::fromWinId((WId)id);
QWidget*widget=QWidget::createWindowContainer(window);
widget->show();

This shows me the external app, that I am launching using qprocess. when I am 
extracting the app, using FindWindow.
HWNDid=FindWindow(NULL,L"MyGL");

It is showing in the widget, but menubar is missing,. so the desired result is 
not what that I want. It's missing the header Name
and menu bar. Is there any othe way that I can achieve the full app window. I 
want to see the full app window into the widget
without missing any component. Let me know some one if any how we can achieve 
this in Qt.


regards
sujan

    Dear Tony

    You're right, I am trying to access two separate apps, to be
    launched in a single QTabwidget. but how does it matter, since
    even if I launch in single Widget, it is still not coming. The
    header title is being correctly used I am able to launch the app.
    But the app's header and menu bar, are not being launched.


    if(process_->waitForStarted(-1))

    {

    //0.002899170.28096-0.180618=343

    HWNDid=FindWindow(0,L"App.exe");

    if(!id)

    return;

    QTimert;

    t.start(2500);

    QWindow*window=QWindow::fromWinId((WId)id);

    QWidget*widget=QWidget::createWindowContainer(window);

    setCentralWidget(widget);

    }

    I am trying it on QMainWindow. And I think FindWindow itself is giving 
header text and menu less portion. So window and widget none

    is getting it. Can you suggest me what can be done for this.

    regards

        Hi Sujan,

        It's not clear to me why you want to use fromWinId? Do you
        want two applications in separate processes to share the same
        windows?  The title bar and menu are drawn by special win32
        non-client events - but they may be suppressed, since the
        window is now being hosted in your app.  With more
        information, maybe someone can help you - don't just repeat
        the same details in another post!

        Regards, Tony

        Dear Friends,

        My External Application Window title, is missing in my
        QWindow.  I am trying to set this window on a Widget and
        finally I am displaying this widget on QScrollBar. But I am
        missing the Window title and menu bar from the app. Please
        check the code snippet below.

        QWindow* window = QWindow::fromWinId(id);
        QWidget* widget = QWidget::createWindowContainer(window);
        _gui->scrollArea->setWidget(widget);

        With this snippet, I can see the app is launched, but it's
        Title header text, is not opening.

        Please advise me what is going wrong. I have to see the
        window title and most importantly the menu bar as well.

        regards
        sujan
