Zooming pages
I use Musescore to write out scores for folk dance tunes. I would find it very helpful to be able to zoom pages to a size where the score fills the screen, not the page. This tends to be somewhere between 100% and 150%, but there does not appear to be anything between the two. 100% is too small to read comfortably and 150% is too large to fit some tunes on the screen. Is there any way of customising the zoom settings to allow me to zoom to, say, 120 or 130%?
This is only a problem on my desktop PC, which does not have a touch screen. Resizing on a tablet can be done to the size I want using thumb and index finger.

Ah! I've just found how to do it using the control key and the mouse wheel.

You can also type in any number you like. If this is the number you want most of the time you can set it in the preferences.
Try using Ctrl+scroll wheel to zoom in/out.

Is there any way to set the default to, e.g., 120 or 130%? I prefer 130% as it fits nicely between the palettes on the left and the inspector on the right (and fits my eyesight better ;-) ). But whenever I close the file, it reverts to 100% when opening it again.

Under Edit->Preferences the score tab lets you set the default zoom.
