    Does anyone know where/how I can set the default zoom to either a specific percentage.  Or even better tell it to Zoom to Page when I start Inkscape.  This has been bugging me for years.  Thanks.

    Hitting "5" is too much effort? 😁

    File -> Save as... Inkscape SVG, named default.svg to your templates folder.
    (File -> Save Template... does not preserve your zoom settings)

    Aero.  Thank YOU so much.  That worked perfectly.  In the past I've always tried to do it under the File>Save Template way.  Appreciate your assistance.
