Is there a shortcut for the Horizontal Scrollbar zoom?

1. Is there a keyboard shortcut to do the horizontal scrollbar zoom?

2. Can this zoom be done using the Contour Shuttle Express knob?

I would like to be able to press a keyboard combination and momentarily change the function of the knob
from playback shuttle/scrub — and instead, use the knob to zoom the timeline view.

Meaning, turning the knob, would be as if I grabbed an edge of the horizontal scrollbar and dragged it to zoom in/out of the timeline.

Is there a way to do the zoom using either method?

Assuming you are asking asking about Vegas Pro and the functions have not been recently changed, the keyboard Up and Down arrow keys zoom the timeline in/out horizontally.The mouse wheel does the same if there are no other plug-in windows open. You can create custom zoom ratio presets and assign keyboard shortcuts to them.

I am not familiar with the 'Contour Shuttle Express'.

Maybe @Grazie can help out here. I believe he's a Contour Shuttle expert.

OK, regarding my lovely CSP2, I’m not at my rig at present, and, not wishing to give out incorrect information I’d rather wait until I can refresh my memory 😉.
