Using the gtk_window_set_decorated removes the window's decorator that your desktop environment is using....
Try using gdk_window_set_decorations

Thnx Joel.
After get your reply i use :

Code: (C)
1 2 3	GtkWidget dialog = gtk_dialog_new(); GdkWindow wnd = gtk_widget_get_toplevel(dialog)->window; gdk_window_set_decorations(wnd,FALSE);

but it shows:

Code: (Plaintext)
1 2	root: (bar:com.example.apps.basicapp:1304) Gdk-CRITICAL: gdk_window_set_decorations: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed root: (bar:com.example.apps.basicapp:1304) Gdk-CRITICAL: gdk_window_set_title: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed

Where i did wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Using this:

Code: (C)
1 2 3	gtk_widget_get_toplevel(dialog)->window;

You are using the toplevel window, not your dialog, try this steps:
1.- Create your dialog with gtk_dialog_new
2.- Initialize it with gtk_widget_show
3.- Get the dialog's GdkWindow with gtk_widget_get_window
4.- Use gdk_window_set_decorations.

Hope it helps :)

Try this code it will give you window without title bar- will it help you?

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

int main( int argc,
char *argv[] )
{
GtkWidget *window;

gtk_init (&argc, &argv);

window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
gtk_window_set_type_hint(GTK_WINDOW(window),
GDK_WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_SPLASHSCREEN);
/* or use- gtk_window_set_decorated(GTK_WINDOW(window), FALSE);*/

gtk_widget_show (window);

gtk_main ();

return(0);
}
