[Touch user] Add pinch to zoom in page

[leomate]

I think it's good idea to add that features, it useful if you use touchscreen devices with windows 8.1 series.

Is that possible to add in palemoon like in opera? Maybe in next version of palemoon.

Thank you

Windows 8/8.1 already does this. Pinching inward simulates CTRL+Scroll Down and pinching outward simulates CTRL+Scroll Up, I believe. This works in every desktop program I've tried, including Pale Moon. (Works as a scroll wheel for anything that doesn't care about CTRL-Scrolling).

No zooming fonts and ctrl scroll like in non touch version. I mean in another browser (examples IE and Opera) there's 2 method for zooming (touch screen user zooming like zooming in smartphone) and traditional zooming (which resize elements in webpage but still same width)

Pale Moon on windows is a desktop browser and favors percision input devices.

Yeah and that browser i tested is desktop browser too

Nevermind, i got addon what i need called Pinch-to-zoom and Double-tap Gesture Support 0.9.0 and work like i wanted. Legacy zoom with mouse still worked same but with touch you zoom differently.

There are several handy extensions that add specific touch behavior to add this behavior to Pale Moon, as you found out.
Mind you, different people prefer different actions for touch gestures, which is why I'm very reluctant to add anything like this to the browser core, because it'd be a maintenance task in its own to add desired behavior for different devices and make/keep everything configurable. Smart device software should be able to take care of most of this, to begin with.

Note, in addition, Pale Moon has detailed control over what happens with gestures. see about:config's browser.gesture.* preferences -- you may not even need the extension.

EDIT: looked at the extension's code, certainly not something that can be done in-browser already; some smart canvas juggling is done there to provide the full-content zoom on gestures.
