Cubase question: Zoom track rows - any advice?

I'm looking for a key command (or a macro sequence) that can change the height of my tracks to, let's say, 9 rows. I want a quick key command that does this in one step.

The available key commands only allow for a maximum of 4 rows of track height. Although there is a key command that opens a dialog box for the number of track rows ("zoom tracks N rows"), you then have to manually type in a value. I tried doing this with a macro, but I couldn't identify a command that inputs a desired numerical value. Any ideas?

Here's another one that frustrates me and slows down editing. Let's say I have my tracks set at row height 3. I now want to zoom in on an automation lane for more detailed tweaking. Here are steps I have to follow: range tool (#2) > Alt-S to zoom > object tool (#1)...edit automation points... Alt-D to return to row height 3. Hmmmm, this seems like an excessive amount of clicking to get in, tweak, and get out. Is there a more efficient way to zoom in and do some fine editing, or is the best there is in Cubase?

Thanks! (by the way, I'll post in several forums)

This is not DAW-specific forum, so you'd save everyone time if you wrote "[Cubase]" in the topic title...

I had to read the whole post to realise I've no idea because it's a Cubase specific question...

Oh, good point. Sorry about that. Let me try to amend the topic. Not quite sure how to do it, but I'll give it a try. Cheers

Thanks!

I'm assuming Shift+H / Shift+G are not doing what you want?

Check this page - maybe there's something that works:
