Hi, I am trying to find a way to disable the pinching action on the touch pad.. I don't need it and keep accidentally triggering it, enlarging the the words or videos and having to collapse it again. (happened 3 times just typing this) . 

I believe I've asked before but never got an answer..

If there is not a way please give me suggestions on how to avoid it happening (with my fingers).

Hi @MarkinLA

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

Try these steps - 

 

1) In the address bar of the chrome browser, type - chrome://flags

 

2) Search for “pinch”.

 

3) It should be under “Pinch Scale”.

 

4) From the drop-down menu, select "Disable" and restart your browser. 

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted. 

 

Please click “Accept as Solution” if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution.

Hi Asmita. In case you didn't recieve prior response, I was not able to find 'pinch scale' in the vast flag list..I will scroll it once more to be sure of that..Otherwise I believe I will have to accept that there is no disable pinch-zoom and try to adjust to avoiding zoom occurring..Not that important anyway..

One other thing I may have brought up is that I'd like to get a tiny bit more red and less blue in video colors and to have a brighter lit screen at full level.. I doubt this is available, but  I will check flags for this too.

No need reply unless you have more advice 

Thank you again,
