How "dolly" into a 3D graphic in Mathematica 13.1?

In his announcement of Mathematica 13.1 (https://writings.stephenwolfram.com/2022/06/launching-version-13-1-of-wolfram-language-mathematica/), Stephen Wolfram discusses a new feature: the ability to "dolly" into a 3D graphic (which is different from zooming in).

How does one do this? Is it some key combination and if so, what - for Mac and for Windows?

The example he uses is:

 Graphics3D[Table[Style[Ball[RandomReal[1, 3], RandomReal[{0, 0.1}]], RandomColor[]], 40]]

He includes a video showing "dollying in" but doesn't say how to do it.

It probably should be added here but it's not:

I couldn't find "dolly" either.

On Windows, it's CTRL+Shift+drag rather than CTRL+Drag for zoom. So I guess on Mac it will be CMD+Shift+drag

Yes, CMD+Shift+drag on Mac. Thanks.

Is this documented anywhere? (I didn't find it.)

Hi Murray,

Check out Stephen's video on 13.1 at around the 1:01:29 mark. On a Mac it is Command + click drag.
