Zoom tip – zooming with a Scroll Wheel

If you have a mouse with a scroll wheel, you can use the scroll wheel to zoom in and out of tracks, both vertically and horizontally.

To continuously zoom horizontally in the Edit window, hold down Alt while turning the mouse scroll wheel.
To continuously vertically zoom audio tracks in the Edit window, hold down Alt+Shift while turning the mouse scroll wheel.

To continuously vertically zoom MIDI tracks in the Edit window, hold down Alt+Start (Windows) or Alt+Control (Mac) while turning the mouse scroll wheel.

To scroll the contents of the Edit window or Mix window horizontally, focus the window you want to scroll by clicking in it or bringing it forward, and then hold down the Shift key while turning the mouse scroll wheel.
