How do i style the title bar of a popup in a chrome extension? I notice this being done by Chat for Chrome. (Note: the screenshot for that one is outdated)

I got as far as opening a popup without the address bar. But can't get on from there

The title bar itself is not part of the HTML upon inspection.

Example here:

Header from the popup for Hangouts

    Duplicate: [How to build an extension like Chat for Google](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9487446/how-to-build-an-extension-like-chat-for-google) -- use `type: panel` in [`chrome.windows.create`](https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/windows.html#method-create) – apsillers May 16 '13 at 14:39
  • Or by "*opening a popup without the address bar*" do you mean you are *already* using `type: panel` and need further assistance? – apsillers May 16 '13 at 14:42

Turns out that this isn't a regular chrome extension I was looking at. It's a chrome packaged app. And it's possible to remove the title bars with chrome apps.

The window in the screenshot you show does have the title bar in the HTML/CSS.

I have been researching this topic much and I surely know that Hangouts is a extension, not a packaged app.

I believe the extension windows are modified desktop notifications. I go to create an extension using these modified desktop notifications and i will report the result here.
