Unzoom window

When using a pen tablet I sometimes mistakenly double click the menu bar of an open application which causes it to zoom to full screen. I can't find a way to un-zoom other than to drag the corner of the window back down to a reasonable size. Is there an un-zoom command?

You should just need to double-click it again.

Zoom toggles between the smallest size window to hold all of the data and the user set size.

If you set a window size by dragging, zoom will set the size to the smallest size that will show all (most) of the data.

If you zoom again, it will go back to the size you set.
