A freeform window.

The `AdwWindow` widget is a subclass of [class@Gtk.Window] which has no titlebar area. Instead, [class@ToolbarView] can be used together with [class@HeaderBar] or [class@Gtk.HeaderBar] as follows:

```xml <object class="AdwWindow"> <property name="content"> <object class="AdwToolbarView"> <child type="top"> <object class="AdwHeaderBar"/> </child> <property name="content"> <!-- ... --> </property> < /object> </property> </object> ```

Using [property@Gtk.Window:titlebar] or [property@Gtk.Window:child] is not supported and will result in a crash. Use [ property@Window:content] instead.

Dialogs

`AdwWindow` can contain [class@Dialog]. Use [method@Dialog.present] with the window or a widget within a window to show a dialog.

Breakpoints

`AdwWindow` can be used with [class@Breakpoint] the same way as [class@BreakpointBin]. Refer to that widget's documentation for details.

Example:

```xml <object class="AdwWindow"> <property name="content"> <object class="AdwToolbarView"> <child type="top"> <object class="AdwHeaderBar"/> </child> <property name="content"> <!-- ... --> </property> <child type="bottom"> <object class="GtkActionBar" id="bottom_bar"> <property name="revealed">True</property> < property name="visible">False</property> </object> </child> </object> </property> <child> <object class="AdwBreakpoint"> <condition>max-width: 500px</condition> <setter object="bottom_bar" property="visible">True</setter> </object> </child> </object> ```

When breakpoints are used, the minimum size must be larger than the smallest UI state. `AdwWindow` defaults to the minimum size of 360×200 px. If that's too small, set the [property@Gtk.Widget:width-request] and [property@Gtk.Widget:height-request] properties manually.

Adaptive Preview

`AdwWindow` has a debug tool called adaptive preview. It can be opened from GTK Inspector or by pressing <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+< kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>M</kbd>, and controlled via the [property@Window:adaptive-preview] property.
