For the moment, you can 'zoom' via the font size menu - since the zoom is simply implemented as a change in the alignment layout grid size (and font size change). We can certainly improve this: it could also be triggered by CTRL/CMD +/-, as in browsers, or hooked up to mouse clicks via ALT and SHIFT/ALT. We've also found that a pan/zoom mode is pretty essential when working with big alignments, including support for trackpad/screen pinch-zoom gestures. That is planned for a later release in the 2.11 series. Are there any key combinations you've encountered that would be good for Jalview to support ?
