Zooming on Timeline jumping in Premiere Pro on MAC

  • November 8, 2024

When I try to zoom in on individual clips in the timeline using Alt + Mouse Scroll, the zoom behavior is erratic. The zoom jumps around, often zooming in completely on the timeline. I am using a Logitech MX 3 mouse.

However, when I use the side scroll wheel of the mouse, the zoom works as expected with no issues.

I’m confident that the issue is not with the mouse itself, as I’ve tested it with a different mouse and the same problem persists. This issue has been present in previous versions of Premiere Pro as well.

Please let me know if you need additional information.

You need to set the scroll speed within the logitec app for Premiere Pro to the slowest...

Thanks for the suggestions, Ylbsi. Ferenc Dániel27645514h493, if you have the Logitech app installed, can you confirm if setting the scroll speed fixes the issue for you?

HI @Ferenc Dániel27645514h493 - Do you have Logitech software installed that is interacting with Premiere Pro?  

"my mouse has a side scroller too, thats working good."

What is the difference between your middle scroll whell and your side scroll?

Hello,

just to be clear, if I am using the middle scroll on my mouse its jumping, even if i am using Cmd+scroll for panning or option+scroll for zooming.

my mouse has a side scroller too, thats working good.

Hi @Ferenc Dániel27645514h493 - Just to confirm you are selecting Command + Mouse Scroll correct? Can you try navigating to your preferences under Timeline and set Timeline Playback Auto-Scrolling to "No Scroll" and let us know if that helps your issue?
