I have one main Electron window which is loaded by loadURL. In that window we a different a-tag which automatically created a new BrowserWindow with default setting. how can we change the Browserwindow properties on that window like.
new BrowserWindow({
width: width,
show: true,
height: height,
frame: false,
transparent: true,
}
You need to use the setWindowOpenHandler
method to intercept the window launch and configure the properties:
mainWindow.webContents.setWindowOpenHandler((details) => {
return {
action: "allow",
overrideBrowserWindowOptions: {
width: 100,
frame: false,
// etc.
}
});
Note this handler will fire for all windows opened from your main window, so you might want to check the details.disposition
property or figure out in some other way if you want to mess with the window configuration (e.g. window.open
will also trigger this)
