Touchpad Zoom issues

I purchased a Toshiba Satellite M505d. I'm obviously doing something to the touchpad to make the screen zoom in and out. I've tried everything I can think of to disable this feature but haven't been succesful. There is a touchpad icon on the taskbar but no option to disable zooming on it. I've also tried to fix things in the device manager but again can't find anything to work with. Anyone know how to fix this poorly designed feature?

Jerry, thank you, as well, for your less than helpful reply.
If you actually read my first post you would see that I had already tried to disable the pinch zoom feature using the taskbar icon and the device manager. And if you had read my other post you would see that I, as a follow-up, posted that pinch zoom apparently cannot be disabled with the particular Alps driver this computer uses.
Additionally, your advice to "dig deep" in the Control Panel is a great way to ensure a novice screws up their computer. I suppose telling someone to fool around with the registry to fix a problem is coming next.
Out of curiosity, did you reply to up your post count? Or are you just a fan of talking...?

Touchpad Zoom

I want to disable the touchpad zoom on my laptop. It's super annoying and keeps zooming my emails in and out while I'm typing. The current driver for the device does not have a "pinch-zoom" check box in the Control Panel>Mouse>Mouse Properties>Device Settings, so I have not been able to remedy the issue with past postings advice.

Go to the touchpad icon on the taskbar and go to the pointing device properties . Go to the device settings tab, then click the settings button. On the left hand side there is a menu of items to select, click on pinch zoom and unclick the enable zoom box, press apply and ok. This should solve your problem
I signed up so I could actually thank manda0515,you may have got it from the person who made this topic, but you helped me with my zoom issue. Which was driving me mad, so thank you.

Touchpad zoom disable permanently

I want to disable pinch zoom for synaptics touchpad permanently, as it's too sensitive and changes zoom when two fingers are over the touch pad. I have disabled it configuration->Mouse and tactil panel->additional configuration->clickpad configuration->pich zoom. But after restarting windows, the configuration is active again.

Did you find Synaptics Clickpad in Control Panel? That is where all settings are for the touchpad.

IOS Wallpaper Scale/Zoom Issue Returns in iOS 7.1

Is anyone experiencing the photo zoom/scale for wallpaper issue again where they cannot fit scale down the photo subjects to fit into the iPad's frame?
This used to be fixed by turning off the Parallax effect via Settings > General > Accessibility > Reduce Motion ON
However, it seems like Apple has broken it again.
Can anyone else confirm this? I just tried changing wallpaper on iOS 7.1 and cannot get the photo to fit as if I was looking at it from the Photos App.

Nope, it's broken for me. Images with resolutions much larger than the iPads native resolution won't scale down. You can easily scale up, just not down. It's very aggravating that this remains an issue in 7.1
And, I'm sick of hearing people say it's working when it doesn't. It's not just my device. I've confirmed it on numerous devices new and old, iPhone and iPad. Not being able to scale an image down when you could prior to iOS7 is not "better". Losing capability is not "better".

Zoom issues in IOS 8

I am having the same issue with the zoom, once I triple tap to activate zoom works fine for a bit then the whole OS seems to lock up, at which point I have to restart the iPad and then triple to to turn zoom off, by the way this happens on both the iPad and iPhone, this issues really needs to be fixed.
Now with the other issues of the zoom going from full screen back into windows mode, I think I found a work around. I Noticed this issue several months back I would go into settings and change it to full screen mode and at some point it would go back into window mode, when I checked in setting it was still set to full screen so I would uncheck it then recheck it want back into full screen mode for a bit and would go the same. Then I noticed it only happened when the keyboard was called it would window the screen and keep the keyboard at normal size when I finished with the keyboard zoom stayed in window mode, this in my opinion is a bug so this is how I fixed this issue for anyone who is having the problem.
1 Go to settings-General
2 Go to accessibility
3 Go to Zoom
4 turn on Follow Focus
5 Turn on Zoom Keyboard
This should take care of that issue, I do not like the keyboard being on zoom but that is the only way for now to keep zoom in full screen. Once I did this it has never gone into Window Mode again. What I do is zoom when I want to see something and triple tap out of zoom to use the keyboard.
This is my issue with Apple again IOS 8 seems half baked, I expect bugs in any OS that is the nature of the beast, but issues like lockups and things going in and out of modes seem to be nothing more than laziness on Apple's part.

Zoom issue when using selection tool in Photoshop CS5

Hi, i have a macbook pro with a multi touch trackpad. For some reason when i'm using the selection tool and i try zooming in or out using the multi touch track pad nothing happens or sometimes it takes forever for anything to take place. Other times, i have to resort to using the keypad to zoom in or out.
what could be causing this issue as it is really slowing me down

Hi - thanks for your comments. It was happening on all of the selection tools however I have solved the problem by changing the 'Advanced Graphics Processor Setting' to 'Basic' in Photoshop CC.
Thanks anyway

Links don't work zoomed, issue not solved?

I've been waiting for months on this issue;
when zoomed, zoomed to anything, links don't work in Safari.
I was told months ago, something is wrong with Safari toolkit.
I just updated and issue remains.
(just amazing)

HI,
Try maintenance... the link works perfect here; Safari 4.0.5 SL 10.6.2
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...

Zoom Issues with JScrollPane

Hello all,
I have ran into an issue with zoom functionality on a JScrollPane.
Here is the situation (code to follow):
I have a JFrame with a JDesktopPane as the contentpane. Then I have a JScrollPane with a JPanel inside. On this JPanel are three rectangles. When they are clicked on, they will open up a JInternalFrame with their name (rect1, rect2, or rect3) as the title bar. Rect3 is positioned (2000,2000).
I have attached a mousewheel listener to the JPanel so I can zoom in and out.
I have also attached a mouse listener so I can detect the mouse clicks for the rectangles. I also do a transformation on the point so I can be use it during clicks while the panel is zoomed.
All of this works fantastic. The only issue I am having is that when the JScrollPane scroll bars change, I cannot select any of the rectangles.
I will give a step by step reproduction to be used with the code:
1.) Upon loading you will see two rectangles. Click the far right one. You'll see a window appear. Good. Move it to the far right side.
2.) Zoom in with your mouse wheel (push it towards you) until you cannot zoom anymore (May have to get focus back on the panel). You should see three rectangles. Click on the newly shown rectangle. Another window, titled rect3 should appear. Close both windows.
3.) This is where things get alittle tricky. Sometimes it works as intended, other times it doesn't. But do something to this affect: Scroll to the right so that only the third rectangle is showing. Try to click on it. If a window does not appear - that is the problem. But if a window does appear, close it out and try to click on the 3rd rect again. Most times, it will not display another window for me. I have to zoom out one step and back in. Then the window will appear.
After playing around with it for awhile, I first thought it may be a focus issue...I've put some code in the internal window listeners so the JPanel/JScrollPane can grab the focus upon window closing, but it still does not work. So, either the AffineTransform and/or point conversion could be the problem with the scroll bars? It only happens when the scroll bar has been moved. What affect would this have on the AffineTransform and/or point conversion?
Any help would be great.
Here is the code, it consists of two files:

               this.myScrollPane = myScrollPane;
     }

What I'm noticing is your zoomedAffineTransform is changing when you click to close the internal frame. This ends up being passed down the line, thus mucking up your clicks until you do something to reset it (like zoom in and out).
Clicking on the JInternalFrame appears to add a translate to the g2d transform. This translation is what's throwing everything off. So in the paintComponent where you set the zoomedAffineTransform, you can verify if the transform has a translation before storing the reference:
         if (g2d.getTransform().getTranslateX() == 0.0) {
            zoomedAffineTransform = g2d.getTransform();

G500 Touchpad click issue

Hi
after installing the elan touchpad driver why i have to double click for selecting text or any link etc.
single click only work in the currently used window and at the same time if any dialog or another window is opened than to close the new window i have to click two times on the cross button.
but with windows default driver it is working fine. i used latest driver of touchpad.
any help is really appriciated.
System configuration:
OS : win 7 64 bit
RAM : 8 gb (dual channel)
Hard Disk : 120 gb intel ssd
Thanks

hi pushpender,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
Try opening the Mouse / Touchpad settings
Open Control Panel / Hardware and Sound / Mouse
The last tab on this Windows should be your touchpad
Once you have that window click on the ELAN hardware then click on options.
Try configuring the tapping option in there.
Let me know your findings
Cheers!

Adobe Connect Webcam "Zooming" issue on PC NOT on MAC HELP??

Hi All,
So this is about the resolution of the webcam and it "auto" zooming when the webcam window is reduced.
ie.. I have a 480p camera and when the video window is large (approx a quarter of screen real-estate) all is fine. As i reduce the window or ad more cams from other presenters the image is cropped to just the centre 280p . rather than just reducing the window size it reduces the images size as well. So a head shot turns into an extreme close up!
This issue does not happen on a mac.
Both are using the adobeconnectaddin and are up to date with flash etc.
Any ideas?

Have you ever received any information to help in regard to this problem? I'm looking for similar "fixes" for LiveCycle Designer forms to work on a Mac.
Since Firefox is now a Mac browser would your idea of coding work in that? If so I'd love to learn how!
Thanks,

Flash movie in Safari in Macbook Pro Retina Display zooming issue

Hello,
On Macbook Pro Retina Display in Safari browser, zooming any flash application in browser does not work properly.
I have made a YouTube video showing the problem in action:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bi1d1x8bpnA
When I zoom in and out using two fingers pinch zooming does not go as expected - it is zooming into bits outside of the zoom area while the zooming is in the process.
Please fix the issue.
Thanks.
Andrey
P.S:
I have also created an Adobe BugBase bug report here:
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3323043

Hi Steffen....!!
The phenomenon which you just described is absolutely not common in the late 2013 retina macbook. Even I have the same model but I have never noticed such sounds neither during normal operations nor after tilting it.
I am afraid, but it seems to be a hardware issue. Might be because the fan assembly has become loose due to which its touching the other parts.
There is also a possibility that some dirt or small piece of something might have gone inside the macbook through the air vents which may be interfering with the fan mechanism. I think so you can try to open the back cover of the macbook and see if something is interfering with the fans if your macbook is out of warranty. If its covered with Apple care, I suggest take it to Apple store and let them diagnose the issue.
Hope this helps......

Odd HP touchpad messaging issue

Hi guys I just got the HP touchpad and I absolutely love it. Except for one issue so far... When I'm using the messaging/Skype app and I'm having a text conversation with somebody, when I send a message I instantly get a notification notifying me of a message from myself. I then notice that it creates a conversation with my name listed, and all of my messages are contained within that conversation. It is quite annoying and I can't find a solution for it, has anyone had the same issue ? I would appreciate any help/comments, thanks!
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

The new update hasn't done **bleep** to fix it either. This is the most frustrating and annoying glitch EVER. HP STEP IT UP AND FIX IT.

CS4 zoom issues

I am having issues with the zoom feature in cs4. When I zoom into an image to work on details the image goes soft or fuzzy. My current file is 9x12 inches at 300 ppi it is fuzzy at 50% and impossible to see clearly. I'm not zooming in too far, it happens at 50% and other percentages. This is new to me and I am finding hard to work at a percentage that is comfortable. Is there a setting that controls the fuzziness of the monitor?
thanks,
Dan

Hi there
Are you working with Adobe Captivate? Or are you working with CS4 (Creative Suite 4)? If it's CS4, you need to post your issue in the appropriate forum (In-Design, PhotoShop, Etc.)

Mx.controls.Text zoom issue with wrapped text. Is this a bug?

We have created a diagram drawing tool in Flex, but we are having a serious issue with zooming. Everything zoom fine expect the Text control if it contains wrapped text. At certain zoom levels, some of the text seems to disappear (usually text at the end). I have tried everything, embedding fonts, turning anti-aliasing on and off, setting anti-aliasing to normal or advanced, but it doesn't seem to fix the problem. Is this is a known bug?
If you check out the pictures (see attachments), you will see that the part of the text ('34') disappears at a certain zoom level.
There is another blog who suggest to embed the font and set the antiAliasType to ‘animation’ (http://www.mehtanirav.com/2008/08/20/zooming-text-area-in-flex-messes-up-word-wrap-bug%20), but this doesn't seem to work for me either. I don't know if I am doing this correctly though, but I embedded a font and called text.setStyle("fontAntiAliasType","animation"). However, 'animation' is not one of the AntiAliasType contants. According to the official documentation, the AntiAliasType constants are 'advanced' or 'normal'.
Any help will be appreciated.

Dv6-3050us touchpad / touchbutton issues? Inconsistent behavior touching vs. pressing the buttons.

Okay, so here's the deal:
The DV6-3050US has an integrated touch device. That is to say, both the typical touch pad AND the left/right buttons are touch-sensitive. However, they do not exhibit the expected behavior...
Specifically, the right "touch button" seems slightly weird.
Both button are touch sensitive. And both are also "clickable," IE, if you press down on them, they behave approximately as expected for a usual "button."
Thw problem arises in a couple areas.
Firstly, since the buttons are touch sensitive, any motinon on them is considered to be "touchpad motion," and the cursor moves, regardless of context. So, the cursor moves when dragging your finger across the button, but it also moves when you're just trying to click the physical "push button." This is an issue needing resolution because it often means that befoer you push hard enough to register a click, your finger has moved, thus the cursor has moved, thus it is sometimes no longer over the object you were tryign to click on. It is also sometimes over a completely different object you never meant to click on.
This brings us to the second issue. The first issue might not be as much of an issue if the right "touch button" also functioned as a "touch right-click," but it seems not to (rather, it ALSO functinos as a left-click). That is to say, if you tap/touch the left mouse button (without using the "physical click" by pressing even harder) it functions as a left click. This is probably a function of the fact that the ENTIRE pad (including the buttons) works like a left mouse click (as most touch pads can be set up to do, and generally are by default). The problem is, I'd LIKE IT if the right touch button acted as a "right click" when touched / tapped, rather than as the more generic pad-wide "touch/tap left click." That way, I could just tap the pad in the section that's supposed to be the "right mouse button" and it would act like a right mouse button / contextual click.
Is there a way to set this thing up so that things function AS EXPECTED? Is it an HP issue? Is it a Windows 7 issue? Is it a driver issue?
So, yeah, I'd like it to be that things work consistently.
Currently:
Entire "touch surface" functions as mouse cursor.
Touch "left mouse button" functions as left mouse click when touching/tapping and pressing
Touch "right mouse button" functions as left mouse click when touching/tapping, but as right mouse button when pressing.
Ideally:
Entire touch surface functions as mouse cursor.
Touch "left mouse button" functions as left mouse click when touching/tapping and pressing
Touch "right mouse button" functions as right mouse click when touching/tapping and pressing.
If it's not possible to get touching/tapping in the "left/right mouse button" sections of the touch surface to be consistent with the pressing/clicking action, then is it possible to disable ONLY that portion of the touch surface assigned to the "left/right mous button" sections of the pad, but leave the upper "touch pad" sectino sensitive to touch? That way, when pressing the "physical" left right mouse buttons, the cursor won't move during the process of pressing the buttons?
Hope this all is clear enough and makes sense?
Any suggestions?
I know the driver allows for defining areas of vertical / horizontal scrolling areas of the pad. But does it allow for changing or disabling the sections assigned to the "buttons"?
Best,
