window close for frameless window not working

[coder-ashwin]

when the window is frameless, I am not able to close the window programmatically using electron.remote.getCurrrentWindow().close() and also not throwing any errors but the minimize function works electron.remote.getCurrrentWindow().minimize(). And also the close function works for windows with frames. Also, this used to work for frameless windowsas well in your previous version which I took around 5 months back (July 2020).

works for me. I'm building a frameless window with custom title bar and min/max/close icons (via font awesome)

try this video, hes using an older branch I believe, but its what I based mine on and it works for me:

its the mods to the electron service he makes I think that makes it work

@SolariceMedia That's what I am saying it worked for me also in that older branch but its not working in the latest one. P.S: I also followed that video while using the older branch.

I have a frameless app Video Hub App and it seems to close correctly with this code:

import { BrowserWindow } from 'electron';
BrowserWindow.getFocusedWindow().close();
