# Scrolling the panel in After Effects

(Asked by: username_0 on 2013-10-15)

I'm on windows using After Effects CS6.

I'm new to this software and am having a problem scrolling the window vertically or horizontally, **Where is the scroll bar?**

Alternatively I'm trying to scroll using the mouse wheel, but this seems to be zooming in and out. I read that I can hold the Alt or Ctrl button while moving the wheel, but that doesn't make any difference.

I just want to scroll the panel up and down so I can see what I'm doing.
