Zooming with my pen

[Babine]

Since the last update to Ps (Photoshop), I am not able to zoom in out out by holding down the Ctrl key and dragging with my pen. I have checked and uncheck numerous settings in the preferences panel without any luck.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or not doing right? Surely this option is there someplace?

Thanks.

Was this a function of the tablet? Maybe a shortcut? In my Ps, I have to hold down the Z key for that zoom function with the pen or mouse.

I'll go through Wacom again. Thanks Sam. When I hold the Z key here, it's a 'click to zoom'. Similar to Alt-Ctrl and click. :^(

'click to zoom

With the Z key depressed, click and drag? Or just click? Mine does both.

This does nothing for me.............maybe you set up a shortcut for this?

Checking into that. Thanks again.

Checking into that. Thanks again.

Solved. Holding the Z key down is the answer. Appreciate the help.

UPDATE
Maybe due to a recent PS update (?) but by holding down the space bar and/or Alt or Ctrl, allows for free zooming in or out.

holding down the space bar and/or Alt or Ctrl, allows for free zooming in or out.

For me the Space Bar is the Hand Tool with any tool.

The Command key is the Move Tool with any tool.

On any tool requiring a brush, the Control key brings up the Brush Preset Picker.

The Alt/Option key works with the Brush Tool and brings up the Eyedropper Tool, the Clone Stamp Tool selects the target sample point, the Gradient Tool brings up the Eyedropper Tool, all of the Shape Tools it brings up the Eyedropper Tool, the Hand Tool it brings up the Zoom Tool, and with the Zoom Tool it allows for + or - zoom.
