Is it possible to put buttons on window title bar, as in MS EXCEL?

Hi,

Microsoft Excel has “save”, “undo”, “redo” buttons on top left corner of window, on window title bar. Is it possible to do the same thing in wxpython?

You can add a Toolbar with those buttons. Of course, you will have to implement what each of those buttons does yourself.

The pics of wx.Toolbar I found easily don’t seem to use the title/frame border for adding buttons onto:

Yeah, it won’t look quite the same. wxPython is using the native OS widgets. Microsoft Excel is using something like WinForms (or whatever they call it now) to create their UI, so they have access to custom widgets of their own making. That is NOT a native widget type.
