I had noticed the icons at the end of that “slider”, and found that they did nothing when clicked, but it never occurred to me that the square halfway between them was draggable. Man, that’s the worst UI for zooming that I’ve seen in years and years. How strange that they slavishly copied lots of UI elements from audio apps, but got ‘creative’ when it was time to implement the ubiquitous timeline zoom. Guess I should file a bug report.


I especially love the way it's so sensitive, and there's no way I'd ever need to drag it clear to either end of the control, because that makes it zoom so fast that you'd need a months worth of logging to make it usable. Yes, bug report please. Job/shuttle wheels should be scalable and allow you to make small adjustments by moving the control around near the center. The speed variance should be more like a kappa curve and less like a straight 45° line.
