Is trackpad pinch gesture currently increasing page zoom level a bug or a "feature" ? It feels a little odd in this last update.

    Wryth Yes, I have same exact problem to pinch zoom for touchpad user, also the scrolling experience seems quite not good.

    Wryth josh_bodner  I noticed that using the trackpad's pinch gesture actually changes the browser's zoom level. The zoom level is not changed when you use the same pinch gesture on a touch-enabled PC screen, like a Surface Pro.

        eduardobragaxz (and everybody else experiencing trackpad issues), I've alerted our scrolling team.  Also, please make sure you file feedback from within the browser since that will get us logs that might be useful in diagnosing this.
