The Project Editing Panel allows two kinds of zoom: horizontal or Time Scale zooming; and vertical or Track
Height zooming.

Icons on the View Toolbar zoom in or out at the current Play Head location.
Holding down the Alt key, then selecting an area of the Composition by clicking and dragging the mouse to the
left or right zooms in horizontally on the selected area.
Similarly, an area of the Composition can be selected by clicking and dragging.
The Scrollbar beneath the Tracks Pans the view of the Timeline horizontally left or right.

Track Height Zoom

1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , 16 , and A buttons at the bottom left of the Project Editing Panel automatically scale the vertical Track
size so that 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or All (as many as possible given the vertical space) Tracks fit in the vertical space allocated
to the Project Editing Panel .
The horizontal Scrollbar adjacent to these buttons enables continuous adjustment of the Track height.
