Let windows be handled by the window manager

[Virtheon]

Do you want to request a feature or report a bug?
I'm not sure. A feature, the lack of which makes the application look like it has a bug.

What is the current behavior?
The application has its own styled window buttons (e.g. Close, minimise, maximise), similar to buttons in Windows, regardless of how window decorations and buttons are configured.

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem.
While this is not my OS, here is an image I found online demonstrating the issue I have.

Note how, rather than the left styled buttons Ubuntu Unity usually has, the buttons are on the right, styled like in Windows.

What is the expected behavior?
For the application buttons to conform to window manager/OS styles.

Which versions of DesktopEditors, and which OS are affected by this issue? Did this work in previous versions of DesktopEditors?
The latest version. Linux, though I've only personally tested it on KDE. I don't know, but I would not guess so.

I can confirm this issue on Linux (I use elementary OS, which has close button on the left and maximize on the right, with no minimize button). I have found screenshots of OnlyOffice on macOS where the buttons are mac-style as expected, so this issue is really Linux-specific.

The problem is that on Linux there is a lot of different window managers, while on Windows and macOS there is only one, so making it custom-fit for those platforms is easy.

Maybe there is some freedesktop specification to check or listen to, but I'm not a dev so I know very little about this. However I know that cross-platform apps like Chromium or Firefox can usually get it right (although my firefox has both buttons on the left right now, so not always), so it should be doable at least in principle.

Hi, @janxkoci , @CodingEagle02
Seems we forgot to create issue in 2019, but our dev team take a look at this problem in 2019 and said that fixing this is not an easy task
But I've created new issue to track this - 49409

We can suggest that you launch the editor with the flag --system-title-bar. In this case, the editor window will inherit the system interface (to disable this mode, run the application with the flag --custom-title-bar).

Those flags already aviable in v7.0.0 and I think in earlier version either

So I'm closing this issue

There may be some troubles with some specific window manager, but better to create new issues

Could this be added as an option in the Settings rather than a hidden command line flag please (same thing with --ascdesktop-support-debug-info? Perhaps as an addition to the "Interface theme" dropdown?

Hello, @Batwam
Could you create a new issue for this feature request?

Add

export ONLYOFFICE_PARAM="--system-title-bar"

to your /etc/environment
