[FIXED] How to make pyqt app stay on bottom of all windows like Rainmeter?

Issue

I need to have my window stay on bottom. I tried using WindowStaysOnBottomHint but when Win+D or Show Desktop is clicked the app minimizes.

I researched and found that Rainmeter reorders the Z-index when Show Desktop is clicked using Win32 Api SetWindowPos but I am unable to find a solution for python QT.

Please give me solution!!

Solution

I found the solution using win32 API for python (Only for windows) . Refer SetWindowPos, SetWindowLong, win32gui

if sys.platform=='win32':
    from ctypes import windll
    import win32gui,win32con
    win32gui.SetWindowPos(window.winId(),win32con.HWND_BOTTOM, 0,0,0,0, win32con.SWP_NOMOVE | win32con.SWP_NOSIZE  | win32con.SWP_NOACTIVATE )

    hwnd=win32gui.GetWindow(win32gui.GetWindow(windll.user32.GetTopWindow(0),win32con.GW_HWNDLAST),win32con.GW_CHILD);
    win32gui.SetWindowLong(window.winId(),win32con.GWL_HWNDPARENT,hwnd)

window is the QTWidget window
