So for a scope like this the description says that you can switch between 1x (for quick acquisition) to 3x for greater magnification rapidly..

Is it like you flip a switch or a button and you go from instantly form 1x to 3x or do you have to zoom in with the knob?

It like most scope, you rotate a ring at eye piece end.

From the Leupold site...
"CHANGING THE MAGNIFICATION LEVEL OF THE SCOPE
1. Grasp the eyepiece firmly, placing the index finger or thumb between the
two large ridges of the magnification selector.
2. Turn the eyepiece clockwise until it stops and the thumb or index
finger rests against the lower right side of the scope. That position is
3x magnification.
3. Turn the eyepiece counter-clockwise until it stops and the thumb or index
finger rests just behind the illumination control dial of the scope. That
position is 1x magnification."
