How to set permanent Zoom factor in Visual Studio Editor 2012 tabs
Visual Studio-2012ZoomingVisual Studio-2012 Problem Overview
If I set the zoom of a tab to 120%, then when opening new tabs, Visual Studio 2012 should open them with a 120% zoom factor and not 100% (the default).
But when reopening, Visual Studio the Zoom Percentage should be preserved (120%).
Is there is any way to solve the issue?

Solution 1 - Visual Studio-2012
If you are simply zooming so the text in your editor is bigger, then why not just increase the font size?
Open TOOLS -> OPTIONS, under the 'Environment' tab select 'Fonts and Colors', and change the font size to whatever you want.
--edit--
As @Anovative pointed out in his comment and answer below, there is now a way to set default zoom within Visual Studio 2013 (and subsequent versions I'd assume).
Solution 2 - Visual Studio-2012
Go to Tools > Extensions and Updates > then get the extension
> VSCommands for Visual Studio 2013 ...if you're using VS2013
Then Tools > VSCommands12 > General > click the button Open Configuration.
Then close out of the Options window and in the VSC - Config tab that should be open go to the Zoom option and set your default zoom level. This will apply to all editor tabs. You can still zoom in or out of individual tabs as desired. But your default zoom will be preserved even after closing VS and will be restored upon starting VS.

Considering this Default Zoom question, the whole problem is not solvable (for VS up to 2010) :-/. From my point of view this is a really missing feature.
Edit: Solve the Post from Aditya Patil the problem?
