For some reason, when I click on any graph (under View), it gives me a full screen background with the graph occupying the upper left corner.
This never used to happen. What happened? How do I un-happen it?
Yes, I did search.

Re: full screen graphs
Ahah, I get it. If you maximize the graph, then close it, the next time you open a graph it too will be at full screen.
So the trick is to take the graph back to half page size before closing it, that way the next opening of a graph will be at that size also.

Re: full screen graphs
I don't understand the problem, maybe I'm missing something? If you maximise the window, it stays that way until you "un-maximise" it again (or restart Cumulus). This seems perfectly reasonable to me, and not "tricky" in any way.

Re: full screen graphs
Many applications keep your settings from last time - this is considered good practice. Generally, if you want a display full screen you'll want it that way next time and NOT want to have to set it each time. I agree with Steve.

Re: full screen graphs
I understand you both, thanks. When I opened a graph it went full screen. When I closed it and opened the next graph it also went full screen, which is what I thought strange. Then when closing that one, and opening a graph again any time later, it also was full screen. I found it confusing, at any rate.
So, having found that taking the graph to half screen before closing solved all problems.
