Application content zoom using Magic Mouse

I can zoom easily with gestures using touchpad, but I want to have the same functionality in Magic Mouse. For example, when viewing pdf file inside Safari I can easily use pinch gesture in Touchpad to zoom in or out. But no Magic Mouse gesture equivalent exists.

There is an option to enable zooming screen, but not the content in Accessibility settings. This is not what I want.

I would be grateful for any help.

Thanks!

Zooming in Logic without Trackpad? Is there a short key for zooming in Logic when you don't have access to the trackpad? This isn't a problem in my mobile rig but when I'm home I like to use my TV as a monitor and use an external mouse and keyboard. This works great in my main DAW but I notice I can't zoom the way I want to when I'm in Logic. I know I could click and drag my mouse over a region I want to zoom in on, but it's not as smooth as I would like it to be. Would love to know if there is a way to zoom in and out using keys or a key command instead of my mouse/trackpad. Thank you!

Zooming in and out of Maps with the mouse I have a system with a MacAlly scroll wheel mouse. When I use the scroll wheel on Maps or Find My it functions to zoom in and out of the maps. When I'm in maps.google.com the scroll function on a Magic Mouse will also zoom in and zoom out of the map. However, in Maps and Find My the scroll function on the Magic Mouse will move the maps up or down sideways but will not zoom in or zoom out. The scroll function is doing exactly the same thing as click and drag. There doesn't seem to be any way to get a zoom function on the Magic Mouse. Is this really so? Am I reduced to clicking the tiny + and - buttons to zoom in and out? Is there no way to have a zoom function on the mouse? Thanks very much.

Pinch Zoom in Google Maps on Safari Google maps using safari pinch gesture does not work. I expect pinch gestures on the trackpad of my MacBook Pro 13" (2019) to basically work the same as pinching the screen on my iOS device. Pinch in to zoom in, pinch out to zoom out. This works as expected on Chrome and Firefox, but not in Safari. Zoom in zooms in the entire page not just the map and zoom out shows you the all open tabs view. Is there a setting I can change or a workaround other than using Chrome or Firefox? I have feeling Apple is directing users from Safari to the Maps app. Thanks!
