Quick question: If I am unfortunately stuck with ZBC 2018 for now, is there any other way to zoom the canvas without hold ctrl + opt + right mouse button?

ZBC 2018 lack the zoom in/out buttons in document menu hence I cannot re-bind them to something else. It's annoying having to hold 3 button to zoom.

    I never use Ctrl+Alt (Opt?). All you have to do is hold Alt, right click, then release Alt and drag.

    Oh that's how it works?!

    - If I hold ctrl + right mouse drag, the canvas zoom;

    - If hold alt + right mouse drag, the canvas pan;

    - BUT, If I hold ctrl + right mouse, release ctrl, then the drag, the canvas pan;

    - ALSO, If I hold alt + right mouse, release alt, then the drag, the canvas zoom;

    I can understand ZBrush is helping people that only press one modifier. I had so many mis-fire I start to self-doubt and use ctrl + alt (which isn't a valid hotkey? somehow works as ZBrush doesn't reject this combination.)

    It's just multiple ways of doing the same thing, for personal preference. You can also left click off the mesh on the background or behind the border lines instead of right clicking.

    You could use alt key combination : hold alt then click and hold with mouse of tablet pan then release alt you be able to zoom
    Other way to zoom is with + and - or there is dedicated button in transformation drop menu called scale edited object same button can be found in the space menu [holding space] or on the right side of your canvas if you use default layout
