Derived your class like following :

TestFrame::TestFrame(wxWindow* parent)
  : wxFrame(parent, wxID_ANY, main_frame_title_str, wxDefaultPosition, wxDefaultSize, wxSYSTEM_MENU | wxRESIZE_BORDER | wxMINIMIZE_BOX | wxCLOSE_BOX | wxCAPTION | wxCLIP_CHILDREN)

Then you disable maximize.

It is better to use `wxDEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE & ~wxMAXIMIZE_BOX` as it is more correct and more clear. – VZ. Oct 11 '14 at 15:29
or you can also use `wxDEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE ^ wxMAXIMIZE_BOX` – Amin Guermazi May 24 '20 at 22:27
This unfortunately does not work for me. The windows still opens on mac OS with the enabled maximize button :/ – trinity420 May 30 '20 at 22:54
Not perfect on Windows: it can still be minimized by double-clicking on the title bar. – Crouching Kitten Jan 02 '22 at 15:52
