Hey there,
I was wonding there way a way to adjust the stepping of the middle mouse scroll zoom in the profile timeline view, or a way to automatically fit the current frame to the size of the timeline width? I am dealing with some Burst jobs and one frame might be single digit miliseconds, then the next might be 1.2 seconds (Yes, I know, that is what I am trying to fix, lol) so having to scroll from a 6ms frame to a 1.2sec-1.8sec frame ends up taking forever.
Would be nice to be able to hold shift and it could make the zoom step much higher temporarily, or double click a frame in the CPU view of the timeline and it auto fit that frame to the width of the profiler, etc
Thanks,
-MH
Hello,
and thanks for the feedback. Yes that sounds like good ideas and in line with Scene View and Scene Hierarchy UX. We already had this in our backlog, I’ve added your use case for detail.
For now, there are already 2 shortcuts that might help you in the meantime:
- F (the Editor Global key for “Frame Selection”) - will frame the currently selected sample or range of frame time (you can select that range by clicking and dragging in the view)
- A - Frame the entire Frame
We’re also adding these in an update to the documentation.

@MartinTilo
is there a way to programatically set the zoom value for Timeline and/or Animation windows via an editor script?
Only via a lot of reflection.
Thanks for replying,
could you please give me a hint on wich object the properties/methods responsible for the zoom are located so I can try to find my reflection way down to them ?
The ZoomableArea in most cases (Profiler Timeline (ProfilerTimelineGUI), Animation and Curve views) though I’m off for a long weekend so I can’t browse for the fields of it. It’s also several layers down so that’ll be a couple of complex hoops to jump through and ones that might change version over version.
