Switch window type from "normal" to "always on top" and from "always on top" to "normal".

XMLWordPrintable

      Nokia says: "this switch required destroy window and recreate window again". But it is not true!!! Below code make this thing flawlessly. So why gorgeous Qt library makie such simple thing very unintuitive and worst than others libraries? Did you ever seen window which suddenly hide and show when you switch "always on top"??? If you did, I strongy recomended don't use such program.

      #include <windows.h>
void MainWindow::alwaysOnTopSwitch(bool aChecked)
{
#ifdef Q_OS_WIN
//#include <windows.h>
   if(aChecked)
       SetWindowPos(winId(), HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOSIZE | SWP_NOACTIVATE);
   else
       SetWindowPos(winId(), HWND_NOTOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOSIZE | SWP_NOACTIVATE);
#else
    if(aChecked)
    {
        setWindowFlags(windowFlags() | Qt::CustomizeWindowHint | Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint);
        show();
    }
    else
    {
        this->setWindowFlags(windowFlags() ^ (Qt::CustomizeWindowHint | Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint));
        show();
    }
#endif
