Three finger double tap doesn't work in "Preview"!

It is unbelievable that "three fingers double taps" gesture doesn't work in Preview.
looking definition in dictionay is useful when reading PDF in preview, but  I cann't get the pop up dictionay window by three fingers double tap a word.
I don't understand why apple miss such a useful feature in preview...  

what exactly is your question?  This is not Apple's complaint department.

  • Magic Mouse - three finger double tap dictionary - not working

    A three finger, double tap on my Magic Mouse will not activate a dictionary definition in any app. All other mouse gestures work fine. The keyboard combination for that feature works fine too. How can I get that three finger gesture to work?

    No workaround so far with this problem and also no posts in the Opera forums. Just have to wait until Opera includes this functionality in their next release.
    In the meantime you can help by joining the forum (takes a minute) and posting your concern. The more people that join and voice their complaint the faster something will get coded into their browser.

  • Can't use three-finger double tap zoom.

    iPad 2 version 6.3.1.
    Couple of days ago, I tried to use the three-fingered, double-tap zoom, but it didn't work. Now, being a middle-aged person, I like to use this feature. So, tried again. Didn't work. Double tapped all over the screen. Nada. Went to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom. Zoom was on. Turned it off. Turned it on. Didn't work. Turned it off; turned it on again. Nope. Turned off the iPad. Turned on the iPad. Nuh-uh. Turned on, turned off the iPad again. Nah. Tried triple tapping the Home button to turn Zoom off and on again. Zilch. (Ordinary double-tap enlarge works, and so does Pinch to Zoom.)
    I'm almost ready to reset the iPad, but that is such a drastic step, I thought I'd try here first. Any thoughts?

    So if you double tap with three fingers and drag up the amount of zoom will increase. If you double tabp with threed fingers and drag down the amount of zoom will decrease. It is possible to have so little zoom that it looks like none.
    Is that possibly what you are experiencing?

  • Three finger double tap not working

    Since updating to iOS 5 on my iPhone 3GS, the Zoom feature has stopped working.  (Actually, when I double tap with three fingers, the screen enlarges a few pixels.)  Any ideas on how to get this feature back?  So far, I've turned it on and off, rebooted the iPhone.

    Double tap with three fingers and KEEP your fingers on the screen after the second tap and then drag up or down.

  • Flex 2 14 - Two finger tap for Right-Click not working (Two finger double tap works)

    I bought my Flex 2 14 a couple of weeks back.
    I want to enable Two-finger tap (not click) for right click.. Unfortunately it does not work.
    Weirdly, Two-finger DOUBLE tap works for right click.. 
    How do I get a two-finger tap? 
    I tried the regitry hacks from here (https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Yoga-Flex-Laptops-and/Yoga-2-Pro-Two-finger-tap-does-not-work/td-p/1406... but no luck yet. 
    Any help please. 

    I have found a solution but I am still annoyed I had to do my own tech work to get a common touch figure enabled. (By the way there's many threads out there on Synpatics drivers and touchpads not working right for many people on different machines.)
    Anyway, indeed the fastest fix is to modify a registry entry for Synaptics. Just open  the regisitry edit software on the Yoga and then go through the folders: HKEY LOCAL / Software / Synaptics / SynTP / Win8
    In "2FingerTapAction" all you need is to change the value from "0" to "2" - and presto two-finger tap is now a right click!
    Much easier than going through a driver install / uninstall routine or any other of the suggestions I've found out there.
    I wish Lenovo had this set up as a default. It's really a great gesture and it's quiet and fast.

  • Auto single finger double tap

    Hi, i am a disabled useR, I have apps that want me to single finger double tap, i cannot do this, is there a way i can  use assistive touch I or something else to double tap for me?

    Yes you can. Go to Settings/General/Accessibility and tap on AssistiveTouch. Turn it on (if it's not already on).
    On that same screen, tap on "Create New Gesture". On the screen that shows up, record your new gesture (double-tap anywhere on the grey screen). Next tap the Stop button, then tap on the Save button. Give your gesture a name (like DT for double-tap). Tap on the Save button after naming your gesture. If you somehow mess up with recording the gesture or don't like the name or simply want to clear it, you can delete it by swiping it to the left on the AssitiveTouch setup screen where Custom Gestures is displayed. From then on, the gesture will be available in the AssistiveTouch menu under Favorites. You drag the Favorite gesture to the button you want to double-tab and the recorded action will be performed on the desired button.

  • Two finger trackpad scroll doesn't work in Mac os 10.9

    I just upgraded to Mac OS 10.9 and noticed that the little arrow buttons on the bottom of the scroll bar is no longer there.  So I looked into other alternatives to scrolling windows up and down and found that the trackpad has the ability to do so using the two finger scroll feature.  This would be great, except mine doesn't work.  Other trackpad features work, but the scroll up and down does not.  Any ideas to get this to work?

    Use OnyX to clean your system and User cache files. It's free to download. Just click on the "Automation" tab, check the boxes and run it.

  • SAPUI5 App in Fiori Client - Double tap will not work.

  • Why would double-tap zoom stop working?

    I created a Pages document, into which I've put a number of photos. All are inline; longest dimension 1600 pixels, exported from Aperture at 200 dpi. (Liz Castro suggests max 1600 pixels so it will zoom to full screen.)
    I export as ePub. Formatting works. All pics are there, but when I double-tap a pic, it remains the same size, but is surrounded with a white border that fills the rest of the screen.
    Does anyone know what might be causing this? Thanks in advance.

    Hi David,
    Thanks. I downloaded it and it does, indeed, come up full page in landscape. The interesting thing is that is that other blogs show that much larger pics also work correctly.
    Liz Castro includes pics sized to 1600 x 1200, and which also come up full screen landscape when double-tapped

    While I see that your approach works, the above example suggests that there are other ways, that don't require this kind of work around.
    Many thanks for your thoughts and examples, but I'm afraid I must be doing something wrong at another point in the process. Right now I'm reinstalling Pages to see if that helps. (Earlier I deleted plists, which didn't help.)
    Thanks again.

  • Just updated to iOS 6.1.3 and double tap doesn't scroll up in safari?

    No matter what I do I have to scroll all the way up. I want to be able to double tap to go to the top. Is there something wrong with my settings?

    Hi Mroxj,
    If you tap the status bar at the top of the iPhone, you will be taken to the top of the web page in Safari.
    See the photo on page 55 of the iPhone User Guide below:

    Hope this helps!

    Those who have not experienced the problem will tell you to double tap the home button. I have had the same problem where holding the home button won't bring up Siri and double tapping or single tapping the home button won't close, quit or do anything to the currently running app.  I'm sure with enough oft cheese questions an update will be put out.
