Mathcad Prime 10 - Template default view to document draft

When making a template in Mathcad Prime 10.0.0.0, i set the document -> View -> to "Draft". I then save and reopen the template but it always reverts to "Page" view. I never had this problem with Mathcad15.

-Is there not an ability to set the user made template (document -> View) to always open in "Draft" on that specific template?

-Additionally, i have the same question for setting the default zoom on the Document -> View. Can the zoom setting be set in the user made prime template.

Note: if i've got 10 people using the template, i doubt many of them will remember to manually change document to "Draft" view each time they open the template.

I don't think that Prime provides the settings you are looking for.

Sheets are always opened in 'Page View' mode and with the zoom factor which was chosen the last time in Prime - its not a worksheet option.

Thanks for the response and confirmation of another feature that Mathcad Prime 10 doesn't offer.
