GTK4 no CSD : is there really no way to disable CSD on GTK4?

Than the only way is rewrite the software targeting the Xfce WM. I just hope there are option like no csd in the past.

@benlimanto, if you’re willing to, instead of XFCE’s WM, use ⪅ xorg-x11-server-21.1.16-1.fc41.rpm ^[1] with ⪅ kwin-x11-6.3.3-1.fc41.rpm, you can import a .KWinRules file containing noborderrule=2 into kcmshell6 kcm_kwinrules:

However, you might (hopefully, very temporarily) be unable to, if bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=501810 affects more than merely me.

Additionally, none of this is advisable, because it’s XOrg-specific. However:

@ebassi

“Forcing” the removal of controls in header bars is, quite literally, breaking the UI of an application; same as forcing an additional title bar on top of the existing header bar. You are not going to get any more consistency by breaking the UI, in fact you’re going to get less consistent.

…it renders SSDs around the CSDs, so it shan’t break anything: ^[2]
