    If you mean all the tracks in a project, hover over the timeline until the cursor turns into a magnifying glass, then double-click.

    No Craig not all tracks (I hit F on a regular basis which does the same as your suggestion) just what tracks are selected.
    Scoot you're much closer to what I want but I don't really want to hide the rest of the tracks I just want the selected tracks to fit in window (and then be able to hit F again to view all tracks).
    Is this an option or did I dream it?

    Try CTRL+F after you selected.
    I can't try on mine, as I mucked this shortcut up somehow. I think when I was typing a name to a vst, but hadn't set it to take keyboard control, so sent Sonar a whole stack of shortcuts all at once. Something I should sort out really, as I miss F

    I don't know if a binding already exists but there is a function in the Global Area called "Show and Fit Selection". I found it by searching the Global Area for "fit". Try binding it to the key combination of your choice.

    Thanks Scoot but ctrl F switches them to the PRV looking option.

    Thanks Steve but that does the same thing that Scoot suggested and hides the rest of the tracks.
    I'm hoping I can get it to fit the selected tracks and then hit F to see all tracks again.
    No biggie but was thinking I've done this before?

    When you look at shortcuts under the preferences
    F = Resizes all tracks vertically to fit in the window
    CTRL+F = Fit Content
     
     
    "No biggie but was thinking I've done this before?"
    Me too, I'm sure this is how I used to do things, before it got cocked up.

    I decided to assign D for fit selected and E for show all hidden tracks...good enough for me.
    Thanks very much guys,
    Randy

    The only workaround I can think of is to do Show and Fit Selection, then hover over the timeline for the magnifying glass and right-click+drag up to resize the track heights.

    Thanks Craig but actually I've already gotten used to my shortcuts (I ain't even gotta use a post-it note : )

    Well figured out what I did there, after sending Sonar a mass of short cut instructions, I must have tried CRTL+Z to undo, but actually hit Shift+Z, which sets the track view to Autozoom, making 'F' funtion slightly differently. SO now I have fixed it and found another useful function. All without starting a thread 
     
    Also set up a ALT+H as a Unhide Tracks shortcut, so learnt something about setting up shortcuts too.
