just set up the zoom thing, and wow!
always seems that getting the view to do what you want is key in speed and ease of working.

just for a hoot i made a mini-macro using select item under mouse and the sws toggle zoom, then assigning it the mousewheel... (<<< crazy.. stop that man !)
which i have normally acting as just scroll up and down, with zoom assigned to ps2 analog sticks.

well it works a treat i must say, just point with mouse, nudge mouse wheel a clik, and bang you are in, nudge MW again and you are zoomed out for context, then back in somewhere else etc. v quick!
I didn't realise if there is a time selection it zooms to that (and track), so for just item zooming, i created an action button in the corner that clears time selection, tho I may assign a key also.

so with minimal mousing and zero button bashing i get a really intuitive zooming in and out experience.

I think its the quick zoom out to a consistant view that does it, brings context and overview very quickly..

so uh yeh, i like it.

look forward to any future treats. thanks
