    Hi, I just saw your post and went ahead and updated to HF009.  So far it's working great.  I use the hotkeys for this... (type "alias" at the command line for a list of keys).  I do not have those icons in the bottom right corner of the screen so I can not check them.  (Can you post how you got them to show?)  There may be a problem with command mapping from those icons to the zoom command...

    Preview PCB Footprint of components in OrCAD:

    First, navigate to "C:\Cadence\SPB_Data\cdssetup\OrCAD_Capture\17.4.0" path, edit Capture.ini File, change the dir0 path to your PCB Footprint library path, and then restart OrCAD. After that, you can select components in Orcad and right-click "Show Footprint"
