When zoomed in to edit wavefile the peaks go beyond the screen, can these be moved down but maintain zoom?

Windows 11
audacity 3.7.1

When I have an audio file open in Audacity and deep zoom for precision editing the top of the displayed wave file disapears out of the top of the program window.

Is there a way to maintain the zoom but pull down the displayed waveform so it can be seen and therefore edited?

Maybe by clicking and hold the center point of the top and bottom of the waveform (where it says 0.000-) and drag down, or something that would provide ther desired effect?

Yes I could bring the zoom level down but that defeats the purpose of deep zooming.

Many thanks

Unfortunately Audacity’s “Advanced Vertical Zoom” has been removed, but you can still scroll the view by using “Shift + Mouse Wheel” over the vertical ruler.

This works for me -

Right-click the scale to the left of the waveform and select Zoom Out.

Hi Steve and thank you for your reply.

Your suggestion is not really what I am looking for.

Thanks anyway.

Hi Doug and tghan you for your reply.

That is not what I am trying to achieve, I want to stay deeply zoomed but to be able to see the part of the wave form that has move up beyond the screen.

I guess it is just not possible sadly.

Thanks anyway.

Your description sounds like you want to zoom in on the top part of the waveform like this:

If not that, then what exactly do you want?

“Advanced vertical zooming” was recently dropped, but It is still possible zoom-in on peaks using scroll-wheel, see … https://youtu.be/tzPHGb_zi3A?&t=344
