With stage manager turned on.
Touching the 3 dots at the top of the window has no effect no options show.
There are minimised windows which i can touch to access but i cannot then minimise or expand to full screen.
I can click and drag or resize using the corners.
My pad is up to date.
Thanks Tim
iPad Air, iPadOS 16
Of the iPad is not operating as expected, begin with a forced-restart of your iPad - as this will often clear an isolated software issue:
Force restart iPad (models with Face ID or with Touch ID in the top button)
If your iPad doesn’t have the Home button, do the following:
Force restart iPad (models with the Home button)
Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
If the problem persists after performing the restart, it may be necessary to reset your iPad settings. While this reset will not cause any loss of data, as a precaution, it is always wise to ensure that you have a current iCloud or iTunes backup before performing the reset:

When you are happy to proceed, you can perform the reset from iPad settings:
Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPad > Reset > Reset All Settings
If the problem still doesn’t clear, you would be best advised to seek assistance directly from Apple Support. You can contact the Support Team using the Support link at top-right or bottom-left of this page. Alternatively and perhaps easier, you can initiate and manage your support cases using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed on your iPad, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

With Stage Manager enabled, you will see the new Windowed UI (User Interface) - and with this you will have different controls for the windows.
With Stage Manager disabled (arguably, this being the far more useful mode when using the iPad without a connected external monitor), you will see the established Full, Split and Slide-over views listed and accessible from the three-dot multitasking button. In this mode, you will not see the handles to resize windows.
Stage Manager can be disabled (or enabled) from iPad settings - along with related settings:
Settings > Home Screen & Multitasking > Stage Manager > Use Stage Manager on iPad - set to OFF
When the control has been added to the Control Centre, Stage Manager feature can also be simply enabled/disabled from here:
Thanks for the reply.
Pressing the 3dots at the top of the window does not have any effect with or without “stage manager” enabled.
This is my problem.
