Why can't I set Default Page Zoom to Fit Visible?
In 'Preferences > Page Display' I had Fit Page chosen as default and when I switch to Fit Visible and then click Apply, it switches back to to Fit Visible.

Myself, I was able to reproduce the problem.
Just a small correction to your formulation: when you select "Fit Visible" and you click Apply, it switches back to "Fit Page".
Indeed, in PDF-XChange Editor V7 build 328.1, it is not possible to set "Fit Visible" as default.

Thanks for the report guys.
I see the same thing. I'll be passing that on to the team for correction - thanks for bringing that to our attention.

Re: Why can't I set Default Page Zoom to Fit Visible?
Hello all,
I am starting to think that maybe my machine is the cause, or windows possibly, but in testing I cannot find any version of the Editor (testing all the way back to V5 b316.1) where this function does work. In every version it simply jumps back to "Fit page", (meanwhile the viewer does not have this option at all).
So currently I am afraid that I do not have a solution for you. Hopefully we can resolve this soon, but as this is a long term ticket, I cannot make any promises.
All the best,

Almost 2 years later, is the ticket still open/pending resolution?

Re: Why can't I set Default Page Zoom to Fit Visible?
Yes indeed, in PDF-XChange Editor version 8.0.341.0 it is still NOT possible to set the "Default Page Zoom" to "Fit visible".
After clicking the "Apply"-button, it still switches to "Fit Page".
It seems like it goes about the following registry setting:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Tracker Software\PDFXEditor\3.0\Settings\PagesView]
"d.DefaultZoom"=hex(b):00,00,00,00,00,00,10,c0
If Tracker Software Support could give us the required value for "Fit visible", this could be a 'work-around' for now.
Best regards.

Re: Why can't I set Default Page Zoom to Fit Visible?
Hi guys,
I dug into this a bit, and it seems there may have been a human error on the ticket and it looks like it was not progressed as a result. I have discussed this with the Dev Team and we have committed to adding this in the next build.
That means V9 for sure, and even V8 IF we build again before V9.
