I feel like this is behavior I haven’t noticed before, but I was just working on a new piece and, whenever I select a give section (or bar of a section) and try to zoom in/out, the zoom seems to affect _all_ sections in the dbsong, whether or not they are even visible at the moment.
This is making me slightly crazy, since I seem to have inserted new bars at different “zoom levels”, so whenever I zoom in or out, ALL the bars/section zoom in and out relative to each other. I can’t get them all at the same “zoom level”.
Anyone else encountered this? I feel like it used to be possible to control the zoom of individual bars/sections independently, so I wonder if this is an artifact of some relatively recent OSX update thing ….?
Cheers, Carl

Why yes -- that's a feature, not a bug! :) Hold the Option key while you zoom, and you'll get the former behaviour -- the command changes to "Zoom Selection".
This was a change I made at some point (2.0 I believe) in order to make the zooming behaviour more consistent with other apps, where one expects the "whole document" to zoom, but while also preserving the ability to zoom more granularly.

Ah ha! And now that I look, this is actually all documented in the “Doggiebox User’s Guide” — which, I confess, I didn’t look at until now (because OS X’s help interface is usually so slow and useless ;) … but there it is!).
