Removing minimize/maximize buttons in Tkinter
Windows
For windows, you can use -toolwindow attribute like that:
root.attributes('-toolwindow', True)
So if you want complete code, it's that
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk
root = Tk()
root.attributes('-toolwindow', True)
root.mainloop()
Other window.attributes attributes:
-alpha
-transparentcolor
-disabled
-fullscreen
-toolwindow
-topmost
Important note this is only working with Windows. Not MacOS
Mac
With mac you can use overredirect attribute and a "x" button to close the window and this will do the job. :D like that:
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk
window = Tk()
window.overredirect(True)
Button(window, text="x", command=window.destroy).pack()
window.mainloop()

For me, it's working, i have a windows 7.
Comment me if i have a error.
In general, what decorations the WM (window manager) decides to display can not be easily dictated by a toolkit like Tkinter. So let me summarize what I know plus what I found:
import Tkinter as tk
root= tk.Tk()
root.title("wm min/max")
# this removes the maximize button
root.resizable(0,0)
# # if on MS Windows, this might do the trick,
# # but I wouldn't know:
# root.attributes(toolwindow=1)
# # for no window manager decorations at all:
# root.overrideredirect(1)
# # useful for something like a splash screen
root.mainloop()
There is also the possibility that, for a Toplevel
window other than the root one, you can do:
toplevel.transient(1)
and this will remove the min/max buttons, but it also depends on the window manager. From what I read, the MS Windows WM does remove them.
from tkinter import *
qw=Tk()
qw.resizable(0,0) #will disable max/min tab of window
qw.mainloop()
from tkinter import *
qw=Tk()
qw.overrideredirect(1) # will remove the top badge of window
qw.mainloop()
here are the two ways to disable maximize and minimize option in tkinter
remember the code for button shown in image is not in example as this is solution regarding how to make max/min tab nonfunctional or how to remove
