Default Resizing in Paintshop Pro

I have just upgraded from PSP 9 to PSP X2, and I have a very minor problem. When resizing a layer in the older version, the resize tool retained my last choice - eg 50%. In X2, I have to start again from 100% each time, which is a pain. I can see no solution to this in the program preferences, so if someone can spare five minutes to enlighten me, I should be very grateful.

Sorry, that is the way it is since X10 I think.

Very frustrating.

However, scripts may be your answer.

record the preferred sizing to a script.
Assign the script to a button,
place the button in your toolbar

and voila: one click resizing

Thanks for your answer, but it doesn't address my problem. I want the ability to return to the last used size - whatever it is - when I open the resize tool. Having a script that runs one particular size isn't really much different from opening the tool itself and finding the particular set size of 100%. What I want to do was the default in Version 9, but nowhere to be found in X2. So: I don't want aany preset size - I want the last size I used.

Sorry, sqw - didn't see your post. Any idea why Corel would jettison such a simple and helpful feature? I can see no advantage in it.
