I have created a WPF application. I need help creating the Close, Restore/Maximise, Minimise buttons. (A tutorial).

In addition to this can someone help me solve why when debug'in my application after say maximising the application it does not increase in size.

Finally, out of curiosity, [let me give context], My window will, have some sort of grid (not chosen out of the many capabilities of WPF) with 'say for example' pictures (it wont really be pictures, but just saying) would there be a way to have it show a 3x3 grid of "Pictures" or 4x4 or 5x5 etc.?

Thanks again,

Have a look at these articles
WPF Non-Client Area Design Techniques For Custom Window Frames[^]
Moving a WPF Window with a WindowStyle of None[^]

You'll need to provide some details about your current application, post the relevant XAML and code

..would there be a way to have it show a 3x3 grid of "Pictures" or 4x4 or 5x5 etc.?
You can use Grid[^] with x columns and rows defined. If the cells are to be of equal size then UniformGrid[^] is a good choice.
