    hi guys, it’s really fustrating to only be able to zoom in the composition monitor using the intervals they set.. 25% then 33.3% then 50% ect. is there any way to work around this? is there a script or anything that will allow you to zoom at more precise intervals? thanks =)

    “To zoom to fit or to zoom to a preset magnification, choose a zoom level from the Magnification Ratio menu. To change the magnification of all views in a Composition panel, hold Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS) while choosing a zoom level from the menu. Choose Fit to make the image fit the Composition panel; choose Fit Up To 100% to limit the zoom level to 100%.”

    No, but it’s a good feature request. You can submit feature requests here:

    I’m just staggered that one cannot select whatever zoom amount that is needed at the time. This has been a big bug of mine for some time. I just found out AE cannot do this simple action.
