Publisher doesn't remember zoom setting?

[KK_D]

In my Publisher file, I want the Zoom level to stay in "Actual size".  However, whenever I close Publisher and reopen the file, Publisher "forgets" that I had set it to "Actual size" and reverts to 100%, so each time I have to manually reset it to Actual size again.  (I'm used to Indesign simply remembering the zoom I had a file set to on closure, and reopening at the same zoom level automatically when I reopen the file).  Any way to achieve this?  Thanks.

Unfortunately not, that I’m aware of.

You might like to be aware of this feature request made back in 2017: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/51654-ad-remember-zoom-level/

That request was for Designer but the same probably applies to all three applications now.

That's a pity. I'm surprised there's still no way to choose/change the default zoom level.

It might be nice if the applications saved the last zoom level with the document and also gave the user a choice in Settings as to which zoom level to use when opening documents e.g. Last Used, Actual Size, 100%, Fit to Height, etc.).

I’m pretty sure that this has been requested before but if it hasn’t then creating a new request might help.

Except that when opened on a different computer with a different screen size that could be a problem. A local preference for zoom level on open might be nice though.

You could well be right.

Either way, more options for how the document looks when opened would be nice.

Another problem is when I jump to another page in a document (by typing the page number in the page number box on the bottom left, and hitting enter) - the zoom again resets to the default. So I'm having to constantly set it back to my preferred zoom level, as it never remembers it.
