Quick Pro Tools Scrolling Question

Is there a way to scroll from left to right in the PT edit window, without having to bring the mouse down to the bottom scroll bar?

I'm pretty quick with PT, and know the most of the quick keys by heart, but for the life of me, I can't seem to find a way to scroll through the edit window.

I figure it's gotta be something simple like "apple + right/left arrow" but that aint it.

Tab to transient just doesn't always work

OPTION+ PgUp/PgDwn

Or press Shift while using your scroll wheel.

Liekwise OPT+scroll wheel = zoom
OPT+Shift+scroll wheel zooms waveform.

The Mighty Mouse is a great tool for this, up/down and left/right in the edit window. It looks like you are flying all over the song! Hold the Control key on a Mac and you can increase/decrease the wave size (I think it is control, i never actually look anymore, and I'm typing on a PC right now so I can't check.)
