Teema arhiveeriti. Please ask a new question if you need help.

The new version of Firefox does not seem to allow multi-touchscreen pinch/zoom feature. Is this a bug or is there something I can do to fix the problem? Thanks.

Since the new version of Firefox (which I love, esp the reduced menu bars at the top, leaving more web page viewable space), I am unable to use the multi-touch pinch/zoom function to resize pages. the scrolling still works, and all worked fine before. Is this a bug or is there something I can do to fix it? Thanks for your time. Mx

Not a fix but if it's just a web site here and there that you find yourself using the pinch zoom feature you can use the IE Tab 2 addon to automatically use the ie engine and the zoom works. You lose the other firefox features on those pages but as I said, if it's just a few sites it's worth a look. I sure hope the Mozilla community fixes this in their desktop PC version soon. You can't gripe if it's free so I just keep waiting. :) Their android and iOS version supports it so why not the PC version?
