this program will do it ($15)

but I too think this should already be in sonar

Excellent! This app, used in conjunction with key bindings, allowed me to set up scroll wheel horizontal zooming in Track View! " />

I think I'll also be able to set up horizontal scrolling in Console View, which was a feature I loved in Sonar 3.0 that they did away with in 3.1.

I am so stoked! I'll test this app for 30 days and if it works without hosing my system I'll gladly fork over the 15 bucks!

It is a shame that this is not already in Sonar. It would be a (seemingly) simple matter of allowing the scroll wheel to be key bound, then every user could customize the use of the scroll wheel for their particular workflow.

PLEEASE?

How did you set this up exactly? If you don't mind my asking.

1. Open Key Bindings in Sonar 5.
2. Select â€œTrack Viewâ€ under â€œBinding Contextâ€.
3. Bind I to Zoom In Horizontal
4. Bind O to Zoom Out Horizontal.
(Note that you can use something other than I and O if you wish.)
5. Open the Mouse Wheel Control configuration app after youâ€™ve installed it.
6. Click Add. Under Assign to: â€œPathâ€ should be checked.
7. Hit the browse button, browse to your Sonar program directory (Probably C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\SONAR 5 Producer Edition) and select SONARPDR.EXE.
8. In the â€œReplace Withâ€ section, bind Wheel Up to I and Wheel Down to O.

I can't imagine a need to scroll vertically through my tracks.

really? not even when you've got more than two screenfulls of tracks?
I know what you mean though, the scroll wheel is underused as currently set up.

Oob:

Here's my visual workflow:
#1 Track Folders - use em alot
#2 Track Manager View on/off
#3 Two Monitors
#4 Practically nothing in the toolbar area - one row
#5 I Never use Navigator

It would be cool to use the HP monitors and drivers that let you turn your monitor in portrait (vertical mode)

Scroll Wheel to Zoom? How do you scroll then?

now its up/down =up/down and ctrl+up/down = left/right.

thats why i want to have extra button and just move the mouse. its better because its zooming without having 'steps' (u have steps with the scroll wheel)

regards

scroll wheel zoom, yes!! do it :)

"F-keys as layout presets. SHIFT-Fkey remembers it, Fkey recalls it. " also sounds like a fab idea. i've seen other programs do this well, and it can make you really swoosh around fast in your program

Well, good thing zooming in and out are key bindable in Sonar!

best,

Zoom in and out are, yes, but pre-defined zoom levels aren't.

Too true. Maybe one of these days ...

What about, in addition, preset zoom levels? so that we could just hit a key, and zoom right in to sample level, hit another one, and we're back to viewing 20bars or so?
Hmm, a set of 6 keys, 3 for horizontal, 3 for vertical zoom?

man, one of the big things I miss from Saw+ (now SawStudio) is the F-keys as layout presets. SHIFT-Fkey remembers it, Fkey recalls it. Remembered zoom levels and everything. Made working extremely fast. I know you can keybind layouts which is quite similar, but the out-of-the-box feature like that really endears you to workflow.

So long as it is optional...I hate scroll wheel zooming and curse whenever I use an app that employs this method.

As an old Acid user I'm *still* instinctively scrolling the wheel whenever I want to zoom and am still disappointed every time.

Yep, scroll wheel zooming is the bizzomb. I've gotten so used to it in other apps (SoundForge, CD Architect, Audtion, etc.) That I find myself doing it all the time in Sonar and nothing happens.

Almost to the point lately that it's maddening!

I got the Microsoft Mouse with the 5X Zoom button. The best $30.00 I spent. Especially for tight edits and V-Vocal editing...you can;t beat it!

I use the Ctrl arrow keys for zooming. Works pretty good however you always have to remember to focus the now time where you want to focus to get it to behave right.

Scroll wheel zooming sounds nice though.

After "accidentally" using hte zoom functions in Acid, SoundForge and Reaper that use the scroll wheel, I gotta say it's the way to go. Scrool wheel zooming is the fa-schizzle, I'd love to see it implemented with a modifier key for vertical vs. horizontal.

Zoom function:

press button X + move mouse left/right = zoom in/out horizontally

press button Y + move mouse up/down = zoom in/out vertically

(im waiting for this since 6 years now)

Ron, Greg, thank you for listening ;-)

How about the alt/arrow keys ?
