    My app is a toolbar positioned with move () and resize () and setWindowFlags (Qt::FramelessWindowHint); is used (and respected)

    Everything is perfect except under KDE where the window is too large. What does KDE do, and how do I undo.

      Which label?
      Can you please explain better?
      And why don't you use layouts to position widgets?

        We end up talking about another issue :-)
        The app is a toolbar
        +-----------------------------+
        | |
        +-----------------------------+

        each group of icons in the toolbar may relate to a diver, and there may be 1..4 groups of divers
        having a floating label atop each group on tool bar made sense and seemed hard to achieve
        ie
        LABEL1 LABEL2
        +------------------------------+
        | |
        +------------------------------+

        my user did not like

        +-------------------------------+
        | LABEL1 LABEL2 |
        | |
        +-------------------------------+

        Now when toolbar size is wrong, as it is under kde only, then the whole rest of layout is messed up [4 video screens, large, normal or small, other items ie vu level]
        So my options are
        a) tame kde (to size correctly)
        b) don't use kde
