Disable window decorations in the Mac Driver

Table of Contents

The heuristics that Wine uses to decide whether or not to trim off the edges of windows and replace them with the platform-native window decorations are imperfect. The Mac driver, like the X11 driver, has a registry setting to turn off window decorations for situations like this. Unfortunately, the Mac driver's setting can't be controlled using winecfg. You have to set it using regedit:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Wine/Mac Driver/Decorated and set the key value to N.

If you need help editing the registry check out this guide.
