Windows frame decoration

Post by Dewdman42 »

Hi all. I am using vanilla wine 1.5.4 on OSX, with XQuartz for X11. Does anyone know if its possible or how I can configure it so that when my app runs, the actual win32 window frame will display instead of the X11 looking one with the MacOS close and minimize buttons? I want to see the actual windows frame, along with the icon, etc, just like it would display on a real windoz box. Possible?

I have been using WineSkin in the past and I know he built a custom X11 server for that, but somehow wineskin displays the win32 frame decorations and vanilla wine does not. I'm hoping this is configurable somehow. Does anyone know?

in winecfg, you turn off the two options for letting the window manager decorate and control windows... its the same option that can be toggled in Wineskin, although older versions of Wineskin had it off by default.
