Trying out Numbers vs Excel. Couple questions.
It annoyingly keeps zooming out to 39%. How can I stop that? One wrong move and I can't read squat.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014), OS X El Capitan (10.11.3), 8GB
OK Uncheck the box "Smart Zoom" in "system preferences > Trackpad > Scroll & Zoom" which interestingly enough is described as "Double-tap with two fingers":
also uncheck "Smart Zoom" in "system preferences > Mouse > Point & Click":

That is not helping. What i really hate is double tapping again does nothing. So every time I accidently double touch the mouse in Numbers it shrinks to so small i can't see it and doing again does nothing.
How do i stop it or how do i make it zoom back????
That's strange SGIII, the zoom works fine in Chrome, Safari, and most other apps. I double touch and it zooms in, then double touch and it zooms back out.
In Numbers 3.6.1 or Firefox 45.0.1, it only zooms way out, so i can't read it, and It does NOT zoom back out after I double touch again in Numbers or Safari. Those are the only programs that do not zoom back out.
I am running 10.11.4 on a iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014). Am I the only one having this issue?
Wayne, I don't want to turn it off, I like it. I am just trying to find out why Numbers and Firefox only zoom way out and does the opposite of what its suppose to do, zoom in...
I hold option-command-scroll to quickly scroll back in, but it is annoying that it will zoom out if my hand lingers on my mouse for too long, and not zoom back in just as easily.
you can try disabling the pinch gesture in System Preferences:
I am running 10.11.4 and that feature is gone. All i have is Smart Zoom, double tap to enlarge.
But my issue is with it zooming WAY out. And now it is doing it in Firefox and no matter what I do, I have to do Control + to zoom back.
Quite annoying Apple!
Anyone else can you help on why doing this? I know Apple does not make Firefox. Double tap zoom works fine in Safari & Chrome.
try checking your Accessibility selections in System Preferences:
Are you using a trackpad? If so, no pinching!

Hi Chris,
This does not appear to be a Numbers issue; at least I can't reproduce the problem here.

I think I am just going back to my Logitech mouse for now and maybe it will be fixed somehow in the future....
Stop Numbers from zooming out
