Touch Screen Scroll/Zoom

Hello,
My tablet is driving me insane and I'm hoping that someone might be able to offer some advice. I use it mostly to read articles and so I scroll up and down a ton. The issue is that the tablet will often interpret my one finger scroll as a two finger zoom. It is very frustrating just because of how often it happens.
I read that pinch zoom could be disabled through the mousw settings in the control panel but I have yet to find any options in my settinga for disabling this. There are no settings or tabs after 'Hardware' in the device settings and none of the touch or gesture settings seem to have anything related. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

If you can't solve your issue and no one in the community can help, contact support to speak with a tech support agent at (800) 457-7777.

Two finger touch-screen scrolling not working in Chrome?

This seems fine in IE, can anyone confirm this so I know it's not just my setup?
Trackpad scrolling is fine in both, just the touchscreen scrolling not workingin Chrome for me.

The application has to decide whether to support that gesture or not. You would probably need to find a Chrome forum and ask there. I found the below link after a quick search. Sorry I can't help more with this issue.

The screen on my ipod touch is stuck zoomed in. I turned it off and back and its still stuck zoomed in. I also tried to reset it and that didn't work either. Please help.

The screen on my ipod touch is stuck zoomed in. I don't know how it happened I just looked down and it was like that. I have turned it off and back and even reset it but it still keeps zooming back in each time I turn it on. I can't unlock it because I can't see the numbers and it won't let me move around the screen. Please help.

This is asked and answered often. The foru search bar is on the right side of this page.
It is also covered in the manual - zoom feature:
iPod touch User Guide (For iOS 4.3 Software)
Double tap with three fingers.

I updated to firefox 4 on my laptop (a touchscreen capable HP tx2z) and now I can't use the scroll on my mouse pad, I have to use my touch screen to scroll.

My computer is running windows 7, it's an HP tx2z touch screen laptop. My mouse pad scroll doesn't work on firefox 4. Also some features seem to missing such as the condensed menu bar and tab sorting that was spoken about in the introduction to firefox 4 video.

Apparently it's related to the Firefox plug in.
This isn't exactly a solution but more of a way to avoid opening PDFs with Firefox's plug in.
1. Highlight "Tools" from the Menu Bar in the top left of the screen (or click "Options" if using the Firefox Compact Menu)
2. Select to "Options
3. Select "Applications"
4. Look for "Adobe Acrobat Document" under Content Type and to the right under Action select "Use Adobe Reader (default)" instead of the using Adobe Acrobat in Firefox
5. Open a test PDF. It should open in it's own window now.
Again, not a complete solution but something that'll at least let you scroll with PDFs open.

WebView scroll-bar width – touch screen friendly

How can I change the width of a WebView’s scroll-bar?
I tried to change the padding and font size as suggested at
[ https://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=10409262 ]
Although it works fine with TableView, it does not work for the WebView.
Adjusting padding and font size only increases the height of scroll-bars increment/decrement buttons but the width remains default.
The core problem is that I have a touch-screen driver with insufficient support for JavaFX TouchEvents (no SWIPE, SCROLL etc). It means that I received only mouse pressed/released and mouse move events. For that reason, I need to make my GUI (WebView, TableView,..) more user friendly.

Where is there a scrollbar that's related to a menu ring? I can't find it.
One way to get a larger scrollbar:
place a horizontal progress bar:
change to control
change to "no fill"
edit it (STD if you want slider width changes to stick, TD if you're ok with copy/paste)
show parts window
select "Slider, Needle or Thumb"
Make it as wide as you like
Color it
Oh, cool! If you find a nice picture the size you want, make the Slider that size then right click it and "import picture from clipboard".
Are you talking about the scrollbars for the whole window?

How do I turn off the alt scroll zoom? When I'm in Adobe photoshop and illustrator using the pen tool, alt is utilized for another short cut. I would like to use the alt command for the pen tool instead of zooming into the screen.

I tend to select things from left to right and every time I am moving in a downward right diagonal motion during lasso selection I am missing a clear view and I am tending to have a more sloppy selection. All this does is slow me down since I need to go back and hit those areas again. The big arrowhead just get's in the way. The original lasso tool with the thin line and small active point at it's lower left was far better for me.
I don't like turning the cursors to precise because I like to see the active tool icon where my cursor is and as the icon changes as I hold modifier keys down. If I am forced to get comfortable with using pricise cursors I guess I will, but man, I've never had to do this in my 15 years of photoshop use...
I would absolutely LOVE to find a way to get the old lasso icon -- without the arrowhead above it.
Is there any chance this option could be inlcuded in cursor preferences? I'd give much thanks, Adobe.

UIScrollView - Scroll, Zoom, and Touches?

Im having an issue with a UIScrollView that I cannot figure out.
what I want to be able to do is to add images to a scrollview, and move them around by touching and moving them, while still being able to scroll/zoom the scrollview.
I've got an app where I have a ViewController whoes view (MyScrollView) is a custom view inherited from a UIScrollView.
MyScrollView implements touchesShouldBegin, touchesMoved and touchesEnd.
I add some subviews (UIImageViews) to MyScrollView.
when a touch event is handled, I compare the contentview to each of my UIImageView subviews, and if they match, then I save off which image is being moved. in thouchesmoved, I apply my changes to the selected subview.
I also have MyScrollViews delegate set (the viewController), and have implemented the two functions needed to zoom.
Now, here is the weird thing. If I comment out the touchesmoved implementation in MyScrollView, then MyScrollView will scroll and zoom like expected, but wont move the subviews (expected), but if I uncomment the touchesmoved implementation, then I can move my subviews, but MyScrollView no longer scrolls or zooms.
any thoughts as to why I cant get both working at the same time?

Since MyScrollView is a subclass of UIScrollView, you need to manually call the touchesMoved for the UIScrollView parent object so that it can do its default scrolling behavior. When you commented out your custom touchesMoved, then the message was automatically being passed to the UIScrollView's touchesMoved method.
At the end of your touchesMoved implementation, put
[super touchesMoved:touches withEvent:event];
Assuming "touches" and "event" are the names of arguments in your function.

My screen suddenly zooms too big w/o me touching anything. Please help. I recently "upgraded" to Mountain Lion on my iMac

My screen suddenly zooms too big without me touching anything (i.e. mouse or keyboard). I can't reduce it. Part of the menu reappears when I click at the very top, but I can't even get the red-yellow-green buttons to show. I recently "upgraded" to mountain lion. Did not have this problem in the past. My settings appear to be correct. Any suggestions?

Hi, have you tried setting a different rez in thje Disply Pref Pane of System Prefs?
Do those things show if you Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup)?

Scroll stuttering and loss of touch screen control

Since downloading IOS 8.1.3, my iPhone6 has begun doing some really crazy stuff when I am scrolling up or down with my finger. Its not 100% all of the time but when it happens, initially, the scrolling will begin to stutter away from my finger, followed by a complete loss of control over the touch screen. At that point, random buttons all over the screen will be getting clicked as if I was touching them, but I'm not.
This has been consistent across all apps and has only begun for me following iOS 8.1.3.
Has anyone else experienced this problem or know of a solution? Thanks.

Same exact problem as you have on my iPhone 6, and same cause - 8.1.3. I am not even going to install 8.2 for fear of more, new bugs. Nothing on the list of bug fixes for 8.2 says anything about this shaky screen and things being clicked on their own problem.
Any luck with this issue being fixed with 8.2? Anyone still experiencing this with 8.2?

HT1766 iPad touch screen stopped working. Can't scroll or select any apps. Can't reboot. Connect to PC via iTunes doesn't recognize the iPad.

The iPad touch screen suddenly stopped working. It's been fine, but stopped all of a sudden. Couldn't reboot since pressing the hibernate button also asked for a "swipe" but couldn't swipe since the screen isn;t sensing any touching. can't scroll main screen appas. Can't connect to iTunes, says not connected. Next stop Apple store unless someone has an idea.

Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Side scroll on touch screen monitor

I'm a newbie in Director, and I am now in the process of making an interactive timeline history. I just want to ask how to code the side scroll effect in Director because almost all tutorials I see on the internet only involves clicking and not scrolling. I'll be putting this program on a touch screen monitor.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Here's a very simple movie to show you one way that you might achieve this.
In the Message window of Director, type:
go movie "http://nonlinear.openspark.com/tips/filmloop/SideScroll.dir"
Run the movie and drag towards the left. If you look in the score, you will see that there is only one sprite on the Stage in the first section. This is a film loop which contains all the content. The content may be interactive and animated.
You can find more details on how to create and use film loops here.

It is three fingers, not two. From the Users Guide:
