i don't mean that and btw i can't upload images because i don't have the permissions

Ok, what are the window buttons for you?
Normally they are the 3 RED, PURPLE and YELLOW buttons, which buttons do you mean?

yes those

The link I provided explains why you may not have those 3 buttons in Firedragon (in the TAB BAR of Firedragon, which is the default), you have to read all the thread to understand the issue, it's somewhat complicated.

Let us know.

ok thank you

so basically do i edit kwinrc and make BorderlessMaximizedWindows false?

If you only want the 3 buttons in Firedragon and not affect anything else, this is what you should do as a workaround:

  • Right-click in the black area and select Customize Toolbar...

  • Tick Title Bar at the very bottom and very left

Going back to dr460nized to test it or you just tested it and it works and you will re-use dr460nized with this workaround?

Yes. The 3 buttons just don't display at all within the TAB BAR, they must display within the TITLE BAR.

EDIT: Oops I made a typo in my post way above, corrected from title bar to tab bar :smiley:
