Steps to reproduce:
1. Open any graph.
2. Double-click on the window's top border to make the window a full-screen one.
3. click on a class in the graph

Actual result:
- class is selected and window changes to previous (non-fullscreen) size

Expected result:
- class is selected, window stays fullscreen

I have also experienced this, but seemed logical for me. When you click on an item, Spaghetti takes you to the symbol and closes fullscreen mode so you can see it in the editor. If you maximize Spaghetti on a secondary monitor, it should stay maximized (it does for me). If you don't want Spaghetti to jump out of fullscreen mode, just untick

Options -> Enable single click go to source

thx for the clarification (still IMO as an individual user I don't think this behavior is intuitive :-) --- but since I'm just one out of many the current behavior might be intuitive for the rest of the world :) )

Perhaps this is a silly question, but why are you clicking on the class in the graph, if not to go to the matching source code in the editor? Changing the size of the Spaghetti window makes sense, if we think you are trying to go to the matching source code.

for instance when I want to extend a class inside the graph

or just to mark that class (for instance when I want to show a colleague that THIS is the class I'm talking about in a fullscreen-graph).

This makes sense, thank you for the answer. Learning how people are viewing and using Spaghetti is very useful for us

Is turning off:

Options -> Enable single click go to source

working as a solution for you here?

It is of course improving things in those scenarios. So no big deal on my end to live with it (now that I'm aware of that this is what causes the behavior).
Ultimately it's still a bit inconvenient to have to turn that feature on/off to prevent a fullscreen-view to close.

What OS and programming language are you working on?

Testing on a single monitor winXP system, I am not seeing this behaviour. Even with Enable Single Click Go to Source, a maximised Spaghetti window is staying maximised for me when left clicking on a class, or other node in the graph.

I'm using Windows 7 Professional (64 bit) and C++.

I'm testing this on a two monitor setup. Both (Spaghetti and VS) are fullscreen windows on the primary monitor.

I just tried and spaghetti saves the state of the single click checkbox on Visual Studio restarts so it can be a solution for you, can't it be?
The jury is still out on the question whether other user will know why does this happen, though. We'll know more as we will have more feedback on this. For me, it was "intuitive", but maybe it's just me.
