Surely there's a MaximizeButton property on the form, just like there is in winforms ?

Yeah gotta wonder why it was left out. But who wants to use the OS windows in WPF anyway :)

True - we always generate a fake title bar so we can style it. Another weird oversight, IMO.

Hi In design u set the code like ResizeMode="CanMinimize"

I haven't written a post on my blog on disabling both the minimize and maximize button on a WPF window through attached properties in XAML-markup. In the future I will implement disabling the icon as well. For disabling the close button, I see no need for this and believe this to be bad design; therefore it will be unlikely that I will ever implement this functionality unless specifically requested. http://thrash505.wordpress.com/2010/04/19/wpf-window-disable-minimize-and-maximize-buttons-through-attached-properties-from-xaml/
