How do I save an image I have zoomed into 100% as a final image in Lightroom Classic?

Do you mean you only want to use the part that is visible on your screen? If so, then you crop to that and export, like GoldingD said.

By @SneddonD50

 

I don't understand the question. An image zoomed to 100%, and an image zoomed to 20%, are the same image. You have just told the computer to display it differently. 

 

So... in a trivial sense, if you simply export the image without cropping and without resizing (or export as Original), you have saved the image at 100%.

 

Maybe you could explain more what you mean. Maybe you could explain more why you want this, what would you do with this exported image?

Apologies I am brand new here and thank you for replying.

I shoot raw on Nikon gear and regularly capture images, small birds, usually a distance so when I zoom into the image after importing to Lightroom Classic I get a shrp image that is displayed on the sceen as a much tighter crop but filling the frame and I would like to save the image as the zoomed in image so when I export to Flickr the image fuller in the frame.

Thank you for your patience I hope this makes more constructive sense. David.

You don't

Solution is to crop, then export.

Thank you GoldingD. I get it now. I had been cropping in Photoshop and saving when I didn't need to. Excellent
