Description
When creating a new document in MacDown (0.7.2d49 (919) the editor preferences (such as 1:3 and window size and placement) are respected.
When opening a markdown file from the disc that has not been opened before, the window size is different (or placement is different) than a new window and the 1:3 setting is ignored, the document opens in 1:1 mode. Also, the CSS and Theme settings are reset to null values.
