Can't reset Document default size

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi. Using ZBR 3.1 on precision 690. OS XP-Pro, 2 Gig RAM.

I have tried to reset the default document size: Started Zbrush. Clicked “new document”. Entered desired new default dimensions (2222 X 2222). clicked “save as” – saved as StartUpDocument.Zbr in C:\Program Files\Pixologic\ZBrush3\ZStartup.

Then started Zbrush again and the document is still at the original factory set default size. I tried changing the file name to all lowercase, tried saving it in different sub-folders in the Zstartup folder, but nothing made any difference.
Any time I started Zbrush after any of these variations I’m still at doc size 960 X 720.

Anyone know what I’m doing wrong?

You need to actually resize the document before saving. Turn off Document>Pro, enter the size you want and press 'Document>Resize. Then save your startup document.

Also bear in mind that larger document sizes can impact on performance.
