Usage

Content respects system regions

Place custom content in TitleBar while preserving macOS leading controls or Windows trailing caption buttons.

#include <FluentQt/Windowing.h>
using namespace fluent::windowing;

auto* titleBar = new TitleBar(this);
// macOS reserves leading traffic-light controls;
// Windows reserves trailing caption buttons.
titleBar->setSystemReservedLeadingWidth(platformLeadingWidth);
titleBar->setSystemReservedTrailingWidth(platformTrailingWidth);

auto* content = new QWidget(titleBar);
auto* layout = new QHBoxLayout(content);
layout->addWidget(titleLabel);
layout->addWidget(searchBox);
layout->addWidget(shareButton);

titleBar->setContentWidget(content);
