Re: Gnome window controls

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout "close,maximize,minimize:appmenu"

To revert

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout "appmenu:minimize,maximize,close"

or use dconf-editor and change org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout at what you want
