Logic Pro 8 - My tracks are too big. How do I zoom out and see more of them at once?

I'm operating Logic Pro 8.0.2, and I can only see six tracks at once. I had a view going earlier that showed me more like 10-15, and I don't know what command to enter in order to regain that view. I would greatly appreciate any help.

Logic Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.6)

Wow. Two people being useless jerks.


Perhaps you should "crack...open" a dictionary and recognize that no sequential requirement exists in determining whether or not something qualifies as a supplement. I.e. You don't have to read A in order to use B as a supplement to A.


For instance, I might buy a supplement to a casebook and read sections in the supplement first, still gleaning significant meaning from them.


But obviously there's nothing significant to be gained from this supplement. Excuse me gentlemen while go I record something instead of wasting my time on you guys.

Well, now I have a question. Does the supplement to the casebook just have all the same info as the casebook?

Or does the casebook have a bunch of info, then the supplement has more info that wasn't discussed in the casebook? Oh, and what's a casebook?


Why are you surprised to find two people being useless jerks? This is the internet after all, I'd be surprised to find only two. Make me three.


They're not being useless, or jerks, here. Your first stop should always be the manual, you will learn quite a bit just by accident when trying to look something up. There are several ways to navigate the arrange window and zoom in and out. I could tell you to click on the vertical zoom slider but that's not how I do it, so who am I to tell you that's the best way? You sound pretty smart, so I'll give you a tip: most of what you learn about any music technology is done by looking around the screen & menus and thinking "I wonder what this does?" Then, if you can't tell, look it up. If you're scared to eff something up, look it up first.

I came across this post because of the same problem with Logic X and it is mind boggling how many elitists there are out there. In the time that you argued and Google'd for the manual, you could just answer the guy. Did it occur to you that Logic doesn't come with a paper manual and if I do a search on this problem it returns nothing?


Your mind boggles real easy.

The guy was answered. Everybody has access to the non-paper manual, which Logic does "come with". Some people are apparently too lazy? dumb? inexperienced? illiterate? to look up things as easy "lookuppable" as zoom functions. Furthermore this "elitist" is surprised that mr. Sequin feels it necessary to post his uselessly moralistic comment more than two years after this topic was posted.
