Description
* Xreader 2.0.2
* Linux Mint Cinnamon 19.1, x64
Issue
Xreader can't remember to always open in full-size mode.
Steps to reproduce
- Open a folder with 2 different PDF files in it. Alternatively, create 2 different 2 PDF files.
- Open the first PDF.
- Click the button in the upper right corner that changes the Xreader window to full size.
- Hover your mouse over "Edit" in the toolbar.
- Save current settings as default.
- Close this Xreader window.
- Open the second PDF.
Expected behaviour
The newly-opened Xreader window should be in full size, but it ISN'T.
Other information
This problem does not exist in the Flatpak version of Evince, which Xreader was forked from.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior in Xreader 2.0.2 on Linux Mint Cinnamon using the seven steps in the issue, then inspect how the full-size window state is saved as the default and restored for a newly opened PDF. Compare the behavior with the Flatpak version of Evince. Done means a new document opens full-sized after the setting is saved.
