Hello diego.pittaluga,


Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with the pinch to zoom setting. To disable this feature, you need to adjust the trackpad settings in System Preferences > Trackpad. This article talks about it: macOS Sierra: Change the way your trackpad works


3. Select scroll and zoom options (depending on the Mac you’re using, you see only some of these options):

  • Scroll direction: Natural: Select this option to move the contents of a window the same direction as your fingers.

  • Zoom in or out: Select this option to pinch two fingers closed to zoom in, or pinch two fingers open to zoom out.

  • Smart zoom: Select this option to double-tap with two fingers to zoom in or out.

  • Rotate: Select this option to use two fingers to rotate items on your screen.



Thanks and have a wonderful day.
