[Question] Non-detachable, non-closeable plugin widget?

I would like to create a layout that has a main widget (which is a plugin) that can't be detached nor closed, while leaving the rest of the widgets as they are by default (detachable and closeable). Is that possible? I'm ok if that requires either changing the code in the plugin or in the app (or both).

You can try adding <has_titlebar>false</has_titlebar> to your plugin's config. See this example.

Note that all plugins also come with a context menu (right-click) which has a close option. You can disable it by overriding Plugin::ShowContextMenu on your plugin as shown on this example.

Does that fit your needs?

That worked like a charm, thanks @chapulina! (and I will take a closer look to the examples next time, my bad :/)

Marking this one as done.

Glad to hear it works for you. Questions are welcome, the documentation is pretty minimal at this point ;)
