As shown in Figure 33, there are three control boxes. The leftmost button minimizes the
window, reducing it to an icon on the Task bar. A minimized window can be expanded
by clicking on the icon that represents it. The center button determines whether the
window will be in the full-screen or variable-screen configuration and the button’s
appearance changes accordingly as shown in the figure. In the variable size
configuration, you can click on a corner or edge of the window and drag it to size the
window to match your requirement. In the full-screen configuration, the window simply
expands to where it occupies all available screen space. The right hand button closes the
program.
