Window Customization

Ce contenu n’est pas encore disponible dans votre langue.

Tauri provides lots of options for customizing the look and feel of your app’s window. You can create custom titlebars, have transparent windows, enforce size constraints, and more.

Configuration

There are three ways to change the window configuration:

Usage

Creating a Custom Titlebar
(macOS) Transparent Titlebar with Custom Window Background Color

Creating a Custom Titlebar

A common use of these window features is creating a custom titlebar. This short tutorial will guide you through that process.

tauri.conf.json

Set decorations to false in your tauri.conf.json:

"tauri": {
  "windows": [
    {
      "decorations": false
    }
  ]
}

Permissions

Add window permissions in capability file.

By default, all plugin commands are blocked and cannot be accessed. You must define a list of permissions in your capabilities configuration.

See the Capabilities Overview for more information and the step by step guide to use plugin permissions.

{
  "$schema": "../gen/schemas/desktop-schema.json",
  "identifier": "main-capability",
  "description": "Capability for the main window",
  "windows": ["main"],
  "permissions": ["core:window:default", "core:window:allow-start-dragging"]
}

Permission	Description
`core:window:default`	Default permissions for the plugin. Except `window:allow-start-dragging`.
`core:window:allow-close`	Enables the close command without any pre-configured scope.
`core:window:allow-minimize`	Enables the minimize command without any pre-configured scope.
`core:window:allow-start-dragging`	Enables the start_dragging command without any pre-configured scope.
`core:window:allow-toggle-maximize`	Enables the toggle_maximize command without any pre-configured scope.
`core:window:allow-internal-toggle-maximize`	Enables the internal_toggle_maximize command without any pre-configured scope.

CSS

Add this CSS sample to keep it at the top of the screen and style the buttons:

.titlebar {
  height: 30px;
  background: #329ea3;
  user-select: none;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: flex-end;
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 0;
}
.titlebar-button {
  display: inline-flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  width: 30px;
  height: 30px;
  user-select: none;
  -webkit-user-select: none;
}
.titlebar-button:hover {
  background: #5bbec3;
}

HTML

Put this at the top of your <body> tag:

<div data-tauri-drag-region class="titlebar">
  <div class="titlebar-button" id="titlebar-minimize">
    <img
      src="https://api.iconify.design/mdi:window-minimize.svg"
      alt="minimize"
    />
  </div>
  <div class="titlebar-button" id="titlebar-maximize">
    <img
      src="https://api.iconify.design/mdi:window-maximize.svg"
      alt="maximize"
    />
  </div>
  <div class="titlebar-button" id="titlebar-close">
    <img src="https://api.iconify.design/mdi:close.svg" alt="close" />
  </div>
</div>

Note that you may need to move the rest of your content down so that the titlebar doesn’t cover it.

JavaScript

Use this code snippet to make the buttons work:

import { getCurrentWindow } from '@tauri-apps/api/window';

// when using `"withGlobalTauri": true`, you may use
// const { getCurrentWindow } = window.__TAURI__.window;

const appWindow = getCurrentWindow();

document
  .getElementById('titlebar-minimize')
  ?.addEventListener('click', () => appWindow.minimize());
document
  .getElementById('titlebar-maximize')
  ?.addEventListener('click', () => appWindow.toggleMaximize());
document
  .getElementById('titlebar-close')
  ?.addEventListener('click', () => appWindow.close());

Note that if you are using a Rust-based frontend, you can copy the code above into a <script> element in your index.html file.

Manual Implementation of `data-tauri-drag-region`

For use cases where you customize the drag behavior, you can manually add an event listener with window.startDragging instead of using data-tauri-drag-region.

HTML

From the code in the previous section, we remove data-tauri-drag-region and add an id:

<div data-tauri-drag-region class="titlebar">
  <div id="titlebar" class="titlebar">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>

Javascript

Add an event listener to the titlebar element:

// ...
document.getElementById('titlebar')?.addEventListener('mousedown', (e) => {
  if (e.buttons === 1) {
    // Primary (left) button
    e.detail === 2
      ? appWindow.toggleMaximize() // Maximize on double click
      : appWindow.startDragging(); // Else start dragging
  }
});

(macOS) Transparent Titlebar with Custom Window Background Color

We are going to create the main window and change its background color from the Rust side.

Remove the main window from the tauri.conf.json file:

"tauri": {
  "windows": [
    {
      "title": "Transparent Titlebar Window",
      "width": 800,
      "height": 600
    }
  ],
}

Add cocoa crate to dependencies so that we can use it to call the macOS native API:

[target."cfg(target_os = \"macos\")".dependencies]
cocoa = "0.26"

Create the main window and change its background color:

use tauri::{TitleBarStyle, WebviewUrl, WebviewWindowBuilder};

pub fn run() {
  tauri::Builder::default()
    .setup(|app| {
      let win_builder =
        WebviewWindowBuilder::new(app, "main", WebviewUrl::default())
          .title("Transparent Titlebar Window")
          .inner_size(800.0, 600.0);

      // set transparent title bar only when building for macOS
      #[cfg(target_os = "macos")]
      let win_builder = win_builder.title_bar_style(TitleBarStyle::Transparent);

      let window = win_builder.build().unwrap();

      // set background color only when building for macOS
      #[cfg(target_os = "macos")]
      {
        use cocoa::appkit::{NSColor, NSWindow};
        use cocoa::base::{id, nil};

        let ns_window = window.ns_window().unwrap() as id;
        unsafe {
          let bg_color = NSColor::colorWithRed_green_blue_alpha_(
              nil,
              50.0 / 255.0,
              158.0 / 255.0,
              163.5 / 255.0,
              1.0,
          );
          ns_window.setBackgroundColor_(bg_color);
        }
      }

      Ok(())
    })
    .run(tauri::generate_context!())
    .expect("error while running tauri application");
}
