Adobe Premiere Pro 2024 timeline zoom width is gone

Adobe Premiere Pro timeline zoom width is gone in the latest 2024 version (24.3.0, Build 59), and it's not even an option in Keyboard Shortcuts (can't even search for "width"). Totally frustrating to have to use the old and awkward slider balls on the bottom, or keep switching between "z" and "Opt-z," and then back to "a."  Losing "Cmd-Minus" (Timeline smaller width) and "Command-=" (Timeline wider width) is horribly frustrating! And never happened before. Adobe??

Correct answer Stan Jones

Try just plain = and -.

 

Cmd+= changes the track height.

 

Look at the menu commands; Sequence -> "Zoom In" is the = key.

 

In the keyboard shortcuts editor, search for "zoom."

Hi again Stan. Hey, so in rereading your ideas I searched for Zoom (thought I had already done that, but I guess not!). I then created the keystroke shortcuts of Cmd-- and Cmd-= to Zoom the width in and aout. Thanks, Stan!

A more precise explanation might be this, as I was still confused:

1.  Go into Keyboard Shortcuts

2.  Hit Command+ and you'll see what that shortcut does on the Key (bottom right of that Shortcut window).  It will have BOTH "Zoom In" and "Increase Track Height."  Click the X on "Increase Track Height" and that shortcut will now only increase the width

3.  Hit Command- and look in the same place on the right.  Delete the "Decrease Track Height" option, leaving just "Zoom Out"

Hope that helps!

Hi Stan. Thanks for your feedback. Right, that's the height. But I am concerned because the keystrokes for making the timeline wider, and tighter, are gone. Taller is still there. This issue is new with 2024.
