i have a macbook pro,and my finger swipe to make the text larger isn't working... is there a setting i have to check to make this feature work again?
on the mousepad of the macbook, if you take your thumb and index finger and swipe them either together,or apart,it make the text smaller or bigger... this used to work on firefox,but doesn't seem to work anymore,and i was wondering if there is a setting that i can change to get this working again....

Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.
browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> false
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.
- Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
- Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
- Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.
