Hi,

To use the power zoom feature, click the Hand tool and NOT the zoom tool. After you activate the hand tool, press Alt and then click the left mouse button (Windows). In a second or two you will see the site zoom out, and a red box appears. You can move this box using your mouse pad or using the arrow keys.

Fix your view area and then release the left click to zoom in to the selected view area.

Hello,

The zoom tool should get activated by (Z) key on the keyboard or there is also an option to choose it from the tools panel on left

Please check if it is working now!

That is way too inconvenient!

Simplest way to activate PowerZoom:

With any tool active, press "H" and hold down the left mouse button for some moments.

This obviously only works, if (a) the view is zoomed in and (b) no text cursor is active.

(Considering the speed of "PowerZoom" the term seems a little bit euphemistic. )
