+### ✅ v1.5.0 - Minimize/Maximize Panel Controls (Latest)
+
+#### **Panel Minimization**
+- **All 4 Panels Minimizable**: Click any panel header to minimize/maximize
+- **Toggle Icons**: 
+  - ▼ (down arrow) = Panel expanded
+  - ▶ (right arrow) = Panel minimized
+- **Click Behavior**:
+  - Click panel header anywhere to toggle
+  - Click ▼/▶ button to toggle
+  - CTRL+drag still works when minimized
+- **State Persistence**: Minimize state saved to localStorage per panel
+- **Visual Feedback**: Hover over button shows opacity change
+
+#### **Panels You Can Minimize**

+   - Large panel with many controls
+   - Minimizes to just "🎛️ Filters" header
+2. **Statistics Panel** (top-left)
+   - Propagation score and counts
+   - Minimizes to "📊 WSPR Activity" header
+3. **Legend Panel** (bottom-right)
+   - Signal strength reference
+   - Minimizes to "📡 Signal Strength" header
+4. **Band Activity Chart** (bottom-left)
+   - Band activity bars
+   - Minimizes to "📊 Band Activity" header
+
+#### **Benefits**
+- Keep panels available but out of the way
+- Reduce screen clutter without losing controls
+- Quick restore with single click
+- Positions and minimize states both saved
+- Clean map view when analyzing propagation
