I set up the default zoom for Main Text Editors as 125% in the Scrivener options. But when I create a new project, such as with the Blank template, then create the first new text item in the Binder, that text item in the main editor shows Zoom at 100%, not the default 125%.
I found that if the document is empty of text it is at 100 per cent or the original default. Once the document has text or has been imported etc, default zoom should kick in…
