Hide Form's Maximize Button

Question

Hello experts,

In a Windows Forms App (.NET Framework 4.5 or 4.8) how to hide the maximize button of a FixedSingle form?

I Set MaximizeBox to False, while Minimize is enabled, and need to hide the middle Max button.

Please advise and help if there's a safe way to do so.

Highly appreciate in advance :)

Answer 1

Hi @Peter Volz ,

Winform does not support hiding Maximize Button alone.

You can simulate the effect of hiding the Maximize Button separately by creating a borderless form and creating your own title bar using a panel or other control at the top of the form.

Best Regards.
