PRV Zoom Level

So, I am using Sonar X3e on my notebook and I work mostly in Piano Roll View.  What I am trying to do is zoom in closer to edit the midi notes.  I was wondering if it is possible to do so?  Also, if not does the new version of Sonar zoom in closer in PRV?
 
Edit: I realize this may be an ambiguous question so here is some additional info...I am having a very difficult time just adding 16th notes the 8th notes are so small its hard to move them around accurately.  If I could zoom in closer this would be a snap.

In the lower right hand corner on the bottom and side you should see magnifying glasses with + and - to zoom in and out.

Hi. As well, I believe that Ctrl + arrow left / right is shortcut (Global, IIRC) for zoom in / out.
All the best.

I know about those but it still doesnt zoom in far enough.  Is there some setting that will allow it to zoom in further?

I have never had to go deeper than SONAR suggests.. Makes me wonder if there is a settings issue somewhere. Shortcut "N" is for turning snap off, if moving objects are an issue.
Sorry if this is redundant..
All the best.

In PRV, using CTRL+LEFT/RIGHT Arrow keys, I am able to zoom in extremely close. Close enough to edit 128th notes easily.

Not far enough vertically or horizontally?  SPlat does provide a higher zoom level vertically (thicker notes) as Tak mentioned.   If it's horizontally, X3 should already be able to do that.

Its more horizontally that i am trying to zoom into.  Its on a notebook computer which may be the problem.  Could you please tell me what SPLat is I am not familiar with what i think is an acronym?

The zoom in X3 as was also true of past versions is very limited. I think it also depends on your monitor resolution. However that is in the past with Sonar 2015 the zoom in the PRV is excellent.

SPlat is an abbreviation for SONAR Platinum, aka the new SONAR, or SONAR 2015.
