minimize

# Examples

set the decorations of stack "Help" to "minimize, menu"

# Description

Use the minimize keyword to turn a systemWindow's minimize button on or off.

Setting a stack's decorations property to minimize automatically includes 'title' in the value of the decorations, turning on the systemWindow's title bar. The name on the title bar can be set using the systemWindow's label property.

On Windows systems, the menu decorations must be set along with minimize : you cannot use minimize without including menu.
