I'm relatively new to Max for Live and am mainly interested in its possibilities for hardware integration. I want to control some functions in Ableton that are not by default MIDI mappable with a controller; for instance, I want to scrub back and forth in the timeline with an encoder or zoom in and out of playhead position in the arrangement view.

After talking to Live tech support and doing some research, I came across this:

https://cycling74.com/docs/max5/refpages/m4l-ref/m4l_live_object_model.html

this page references some commands like zoom_view and scrub_by, but I have no idea how to access those or deal with them through Max for Live.
