How can you zoom into a waveform in Traktor LE 2?

Very out of date I know, but I re-discovered my old decks and wanted to have a play. I've been trying to set some beat grids up but for some reason I can't zoom in/out of my waveform using the below buttons. Just want to know if I'm going crazy or not as I can't find any info about why this could be happening - most other questions about this reference the fact that the +/- can't even be found, not that clicking on them doesn't work. Any ideas appreciated!

    Forgot to mention above - I'm running Mac OS 10.13.6, Traktor 2 LE 2.11.3 17

    One option is to assign zoom commands to your keyboard in 'preferences-->controller manager'. Open your keyboard mapping, add the command 'Add In --> Track Deck --> Waveform Zoom Adjust' Type: Button, Interaction: Inc, Resolution: Fine, Auto Repeat: Yes. Assignment: Deck A. Map this to (for example) +(Plus) and then duplicate it for decks B-D. Do the same for 'Interaction: Dec' and map it to -(Minus).

    This is no explanation why you can't see the controls on the screen, but this way you can control the zoom anyway.

    Hey, thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like I can do that - I can get to 'controller manager' but all of the buttons to add keyboard shortcuts are greyed out:

    Any ideas why that may be?

    I would assume this is a limitation of the L.E. Can't say really.

    Hi @chensational it's indeed a Traktor LE limitation. Here's a comparison chart for reference.

    Ah, shucks. I remember being able to do it! Maybe I'm making it up. Thank you both for your help!
