I want to add a menu item to the Dope Sheet

Yes, I’ve brought this up before.

I want o add SOMETHING LIKE THIS…

zooming

So far, it appears that “zooming” in the Dope Sheet would be handled by setting “ThemeDopeSheet.keyframe_scale_factor”.

Any advice?

Thanks,
Cal

Did I stump the forum? No ideas?

Bueller?

YAY!! I got it to work !!

Rather than a menu, I made it interactive.

Here is how it looks:
