Description
Some thoughts about the Min/Max/Close buttons, and supporting FullScreen or Tablet Mode
Some properties to consider for this TitlebarControl. This could be also be useful for the Settings UI, if it is presented in a window.
- CanMaximise
- CanMinimise
- CanRestore
Which would hide those buttons if you wanted to make a settings screen which only shows a close button. Also consider how these TitleBar Controls will handle FullScreen/Tablet Mode

Full Screen

Tablet Mode
