I expect the answer will be something super simple that I am overlooking but I'd appreciate the assist. How can I hide the persistent Maximize Icon/overlay that appears in the bottom-right corner in Perspective? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/4/8/48cf4316018d421b49d0664515692d0edc7c67aa.png) ---

I think you are referring to the app bar. You control it under session props. Once you change it, for example to `hidden`, you'll need to close and reopen the project for the change to take effect. ---
