XnView Software

If i have image open in window (normal mode) and i zoom up to 100% then i click middle mouse button it switching to full screen without menus and as soon as it switches image becomes not 100% anymore.

resetting manually set zoom (to pre-selected autozoom) when switching normal-fullscreen-normal modes
is legit behavior on its own:

• zoom resets
  xnview mp, acdsee, faststone, irfanview

• zoom keeps - for all sizes
  xnview classic, imageglass, nomacs, ms photos

• zoom keeps - for small images only
  imagine

however, I see no reason why both approaches could not be implemented.
zooming settings just need some massage; I still find 'last used' option a bit strange

Only reason i needed that is because there's no indication of zoom level when in full screen mode and i don't want to struggle with right click menu or count how many times i press + before it hits 100% zoom mark in windowed mode then switch back to full screen and repeat.

However i found there's a shortcut / (on numpad) to go full screen and * (on numpad) to fit to the screen so this works for me now as workaround.

However having checkbox option to "keep magnification level while switching full screen" would be nice too.

Info overlay has {Zoom}% tag (which is visible by default as well)
