About this extension
Update:
Native smooth zoom is starting to appear in newer Firefox builds. Try enabling it by going to about:config in the url and setting apz.allow_zooming to true. If that works for you then you don't need to use this plugin :)

---------


This extension adds support for smooth zooming with the pinch gesture on a trackpad. It's been designed to match the behavior of Chrome and Safari.

Make sure all the "browser.gesture.pinch" settings in about:config have been reset to empty, otherwise it wont work properly

GitHub user QWERTYUIOPYOZO has recently developed Windows touchscreen support, please test it out and leave feedback on GitHub :)

Non-multi-touch users can still smooth zoom by scrolling and holding down the SHIFT

Zoom can be reset by pressing ⌘ and 0 on macOS or CTRL and 0 on Windows

It will not work on this page because addons are disabled on the addons website

Requires Firefox 55 or greater
