Hi Greg, Thanks for your suggestion. Doing womething like JInternalFrame, I guess you would be able to iconize the window, but you can only put on the desktop, and not on the Windows taskbar.
Just now I found out that JDK 1.4 solves this problem by providing an API "setUndecorated(boolean undecorated)" specifically for this purpose. All I wanted was a very high level "Canvas", where I can customize the look-and-feel of my application. regards, Bharat. --- Greg Munt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You dont want a title bar, but you want all the > functionality of the title > bar without the actual title itself? > > This sounds like you are complicating things for the > sake of it.
