Setting default bookmark zoom levels in Adobe Acrobat Professional 2020

Does anyone know whether there is a way to set the default bookmark zoom level in Acrobat Professional 2020?  I would like to set the default to inherit Zoom.  Currently, I have to change the zoom of each bookmark that I create.  I believe there is a solution for those who have an Acrobat Professional subscription.  See https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/set-the-default-zoom-level-for-bookmarks/m-p/11355163#M270494.  However, that doesn't work in Adobe Acrobat Professional 2020 which is an excellent program but not quite as the subscription program.  As to the attached screenshot shows, at least when I follow the instrutions provided, I don't have the option to set a default Zoom level for bookmarks.  Thanks for your help.  One solution suggested by others that does not work is selecting all bookmarks after they have all been created, then clicking on properties, and resetting them all at once to inheritz zoom.  I can't set them all at once to inherit zoom without changing all their page numbers to the same page numbers.
