You are just looking at the amount of pressurized gas in the shock. To test the rebound, you collapse the shock and try to pull up the shock rod. If the shock is not smooth and you have no resistance, the shock either needs to be rebuilt or replaced.
The pressurized gas keeps out the gas bubble out of the oil.

I hope this helps.

Gassed struts should rebound(fully extend in their own) after you compressed them.

This thread is about selling the strut I have. If you would like to discuss what a shock does or does not PLEASE START ANOTHER THREAD.

Would you like to buy the struts I have for sale?
