Inkscape : how to ensure inkscape starts with "100%" rather than "35%" which seems to be the default

Everytime i open

 Inkscape

the magnification is set to

35%

i need it to start with

100%

so i do not end up designing something wrong.

Solution

Edit the default template. The path should be: YourPath\Inkscape\share\templates\default.svg

The file should contain values such as:

 id="base"
 pagecolor="#ffffff"
 bordercolor="#666666"
 borderopacity="1.0"
 inkscape:pageopacity="0.0"
 inkscape:pageshadow="2"
 inkscape:zoom="0.35"
 ...

Modify "0.35" to whatever value you would like :)

Note: I believe each document contains its own local values that supersede the default values, so changing the default may only affect new documents.
