Make images always open in actual size in Preview

Switched over to Lion, and can't find an option that would make open in actual size the default in preview. I think I remember this being true in snow leopord before but I somehow found a way around it. However, now images are opening in fit to screen again and I'd like to put an end to that.

It has changed again. Now your only option is Preview>Preferences>Images

Also, if it's possible to change the veiw options I'd like to do that as well, since it always opens them in "thumbnails" and there seems to be no way to switch the default to something else (like "content only").

I have no idea what you are trying to say here?

Preview>Preferences>General

open each file in its own window

Did you ever get an answer to your first question? Regarding default open imges in acutal size?

I'm annoyed by that as well.

Would like an answer for this too, really annoyed by this.

just find a solution,

1, add the 'Scale' tool to the toolbar

2, select all the thumbnails in the thumbnails side windows

3, change the scale to whatever you want.

that will change the size of all images
