Accordingly, if the window manager is able to distinguish maximization from full screen, and if, by the user, it is configured or set up properly to work differently for each enlargement mode, gvim will/should behave as expected. Gvim itself doesn't know about task bars or title windows which are to be used with it at all, thus having no control over them, though it can provide some information such as the file name in the current buffer to the window manager when asked.
