Many suggestions!, but I've found, especially, [Zoom: Page Width] to be especially useful. Sometimes I can toggle the Inspector and palette sections to disappear for full width of the score on the screen, and sometimes afterwards I will zoom in later. Upon re-enabling [the inspector] and [palette], I'm still in zoom mode of where i was. [Zoom: Page View] is especially nice to get the page to fit into the entire area again. It would be nice to be able to do this quickly with the keyboard rather than have to click it from the drop down area where the percentage of zoom levels is located.

And if that were added, maybe the others like "Whole Page" and "Two pages" could be given shortcuts too, or even another option would be to have a "cycle" through which is similar to what is available with Page/Single page/Continuous (there's a cycle shortcut for those already as "Toggle View Mode")

This post is merely re-iterating the fact that the [Page-Width] function/setting is more important than the [100% Zoom] function/setting for the dynamism given to the user who activates/deactivates the inspector constantly (depending on its being needed), which is why a shortcut to enable it is important due to its inability to be activated via keyboard after zooming in (which may be utilized with the keyboard) .

Again, in [100% Zoom], the inspector overlaps part of the score, where-as with [Page-Width], it does not.
