size of image in editing window
#1
Photo 
Hi first time user here, have (rarely) used the P8888shop (sorry if thats a swear word) before but I am finding Gimp (3.0.2.1) a Steep learning curve.

All I am trying to do at the moment is find out how to make an image appear full size in the editing window rather than it being so fiddly small.  I found something onling about scaling but I am not trying to change the size of the image, I just want it to show as large as the window will allow without changing aspect ratio. In other software there is a simple "show image to window size" or something like that.
 

I am running W11 Pro 64bit patched upto date. 

I have attached an example picture which shows how much unused space in the editing window is wasted. I cant believe this needs more than a single "click" somewhere to make this the default??

Any help appreciated.

Tried View > Zoom > Fill window? Or Ctrl-mousewheel to zoom in. I don't think there is a setting somewhere to open images with more than 100% zoom.
