Set sequence's timeline zoomlevel by extendscript

[Felix266639492i4j]

Hi,

I would like to automatically set the sequence's timeline zoomlevel to defined values via extendscript, e.g. the inPoint and the outPoint of the sequence which is used for rendering.

I did not find any way to do that. The only workaround I found is sending an event as if the user pressed the + key on his keyboard to zoom a little bit into the scene:

function events_sendPlusKey()
{
    var filePath = <path_to_local_scriptDirectory> + "keySimulation_plus.vbs"

    if(!files_fileExists(filePath))
    {
        var str = 'Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")\
WshShell.SendKeys "{+}"';
        files_writeTextFile(filePath, str);
    }
    files_executeFile(filePath);
    $.sleep(500);
}

Is there a way to set the timeline's zoomlevel to a dedicated timeline area?

Thanks in advance

No; setting the CTI is the extent of API control available,  over the timeline UI.
