Maximize Minimize not available

Running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

When using LibreOffice, and go to the Options page, it will not allow Maximize or Minimize (grayed-out). The same in Nemo-Preferences, and in KFind main page, and in Ubuntu Software - About page.

Where might I go to make the change to allow Maximize/Minimize ?

Seems I won't be able to Maximize/Minimize the modal windows, since they are "hard-coded" that way. Tk to DK Bose for sending me on the trail.

But that is when I am in the windows manager Gnome 3. So I found if I switch to Gnome Flashback (Compiz), or Mate, or Unity; Then I get buttons back that allow me to Max or Min.

And now I use Mate with Pantheon Panel, and Compiz (Advanced CPU accelerated desktop effects), and Open CCSM, Go to bottom to Window Management, Make sure check is on Maximumize, Move Window, Place Window, and Resize Window. Now all windows are able to be Max or Min or any size.
