Bring close or minimize buttons using touchscreen

Question

I have windows 8.1, surface pro, touch screen. Just wondering if anyone can tell me how to bring up the close/minimize at the top right of the screen using the touch screen i.e. without the mouse??

Using the mouse I just move the pointer to the top right and it appears so I can minimise or close the form using the mouse, but how do I get these to appear without the mouse?

Hello Sam,

Thank you for posting your question on Microsoft community.

Unfortunately, close or minimize button can only appear when using mouse or touchpad.

However, you may refer this article for more information.
