QML window minimal size with frame

Question

I want to set minimal size for my QML window. But if I set the minimal width and height inside my main.qml I've got the window that has minimal size bigger than I set & expect. The problem is that the minimal size is applied to the view inside window frame and the window frame and caption size is not taken into account.

ApplicationWindow {
  id: application
  minimumWidth: 1024
  minimumHeight: 768
  visibility: "Maximized"
}

Is there a way to set application window minimal size taking into account window frame?

I use Qt 5.4.

as @luke_carter already said, it's possible by calling one of QFrame's function related to its size, for example QFrame::frameGeometry().It gets you window size including frame and titlebar. So all you need is to ajust the QML window size. I think the best way to do that with a singleton with suitable functions, for example:

QRect MySingleton::frameSize(QObject *window)
{
    QQuickWindow *qw = qobject_cast<QQuickWindow *>(window);
    if(qw)
        return qw->frameGeometry();
    return QRect();
}

In QML:

Window {
    id: wnd
    visible: true
    width: 300
    height: 300
    Component.onCompleted: {
        var rect = MySingleton.frameSize(wnd);
        console.log(rect.width + "," + rect.height);
    }
}
