Tkinter, enable maximize button when resizable is False

Is there a way to enable maximize button, when I have:

app.resizable(width=False, height=False)

I want just two states of a window, fixed size and maximized(fullscreen with a title)

No, there is no way to enable the maximize button when you set resizable to false. Generally speaking, you have no control over those buttons at all. You provide hints to the os/window manager such as with the resizeable attribute and overrideredirect method, but ultimately the OS/window manager decides what to put in the titlebar.

Personally I recommend to never set resizable to false. I think it gives a bad user experience. The user knows better than I do what size they need a window to be. Maybe they have a monitor with a different resolution than me? Different fonts? Better eyesight? Worse eyesight?
