I have an electron window with these properties:
mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({ width: 800, height: 600, title: "Aqua", frame: false, transparent: true, show: false, fullscreenable: false, webPreferences: { plugins: true } })
When I start it, everything works fine. But because my titlebar only shows on hover, I have an ugly edge on top and rounded edges on the bottom. I now want all of my corners to have a 0px radius. According to other resources on the Internet, it should automatically be 0px radius when the window is frameless and transparent. This does not work for me. How can I make my edges sharp with no radius on the whole window?
If you need my code, here is my CSS, here my main.js and here my HTML.

Okay so I have found a hacky little workaround:
win = new BrowserWindow({ frame: false, transparent: true, }); html { width: /* less then window's size */; height: /* the same */; background: /* some color here */ }
This is hacky but the only way I found that worked. If you have a better way please still let me know!
You probably shouldn’t use this. It may mess up everything!
Better solution: Just set a vibrancy and a transparent true in the creaton of the BrowserWindow, your window will be with hard edges. everything else will need to have a deep knowledge of chromium…
