Hi guys! I never used IE since I bought my HD2 in december...(used opera,skyfire,ucweb insted) now I tested it and I found that IE don't recognize the pinch and zoom gesture.
My question is if this feature is supported on the standard rom or it was myself that I mess things up when I was playing with the registry and others configs.
Can someone confirm me this please?
PS: If it support pinch and zoom and you know the reg keys can you post them?
Nope, none of the IE builds we have 'in the wild' support multitouch.
That's really weird... I was sure I see a video of multitouch IE before I buy it.

Hi All,
Opera build 2532 that comes with the new ROM has a bug with Outlook Web Access pages....unfortunately that means I can't use it. There seem to be a lot of other (non X1 specific) builds around. Does anyone know if any of them will work well on the X1 and support the touch pad?
TIA
For me, in v.2532, AEKmap (for greek layout writing with hard keyboard) is not working.
I've already tried 2520, 2808, 15233, beta2, 86.5, none of them is working with optical button.
I was thinking about OMNIA version (which has optical as well)... but which is it?

Thanks for the link. I already found build 15233 in a thread SOMEWHERE in here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260
Might have been the Omnia QVGA thread where someone posted a VGA cab. Yes, that build works exceptionally well. Has the new invisible zoom bar. The touch pad doesn't work ....... but what the hell, who needs it when you can move th page with your finger.
There is a later build 15529 but zooming really does NOT work very well on my Xperia and it seems otherwise the same.
Cheers
I would like to have touch pad working...
I think that it is very usefull when you are browsing with auto zoom in "fullscreen".
There is a video on youtube showing the HTC HD2 running internet explorer with multitouch working - pinch to zoom.
Now I know IE is not the popular choice but I find the flash support in some of the newer roms to be excellent and I probably use IE more than Opera.
Does anyone know how to get multitouch working in IE?
You could use BSBtweaks which lets you add apps to pinch to zoom and rotate.
Thanks for the response, tried but no luck. Im using MIRI rom, not sure if it's compatible

The ROM won't change this - it's part of the OS. For some reason, you can't add pinch-to-zoom to some programs. IE is one of them.

Ah, that sucks a little, IE has become quite a good browser, if I could get multitouch, like in the video, I could ditch opera :-(
Anyone know of any other solutions?

Bump, was thinking the same
i wasnt liking the new implementation of opera 10 and was searching for a tweak in IE
The version that you are seeing is a special one that Adobe used to show off flash 10.1 running on the device with 'propper' pinch zoom built in. I'm sure it will eventualy leak in one of the 6.5.x builds, but until MS leak it then we are stuffed.
Hey guys, i've done a search on the forums and i can't find any information on what im after.
Basically i was wondering if there was anyone out there who would know which registry setting or something that will re-enable the double tap to zoom feature in Opera 9.7? I'm currently running the latest OzRom and for some reason it doesn't work now.
Frustrating especially when the pages load fully zoomed out and i need to pinch a couple of times to get it to the level of zoom i want.
if you are using Opera build 358xx you could try this. Otherwise I don't know.
HKLM/Software/Opera/Info/az_overview_threshold
Change value to 64
I am using the same ROM (excellent btw) and had the same problem. Just use this reg tweak to fix it: hklm/software/opera/prefs/adaptive zoom/virtual screen width and change it from 1024 to 1020
Thanks for the tip guys, I've managed to get te double tap to zoom working again.
On a different note, whilst in the opera registry, I've come across the enable open gl key which i decided to tryout just for fun. To my amazement, after enabling it, my screen scrolling is much smoother than before, much like that of the iPhone and the rendering at different zoom levels is now much smoother as well.
I remember in the original opera builds, enabling this resulted in very choppy scrolling, but this new build of opera must have implemented proper 3d accelerator support, and as such, it is even smoother than the 50 fps tweak that i had applied beforehand.
For those who are interested, i am using the latest opera build 9.73801
I've just upgraded to the latest T-Mobile Rom 1.72 and the double click zoom works on every site except bbc news. I can't understand what's happened, it all worked fine with the old 1.66 WWE rom I was using. Any ideas why it would work on some websites and not others?
sorry for resurrecting an old thread - didnt want to start a new one!
can anyone tell me how i can change the zoom level for "double tap to zoom" on opera 9.7?
The zoom level seems to be different in all the different builds - the one im using at the moment, built into NRG rom zooms in to close on double tap....i want to maybe half the zoom level so i can see more of the page im zooming into!
anyone help? what is the reg entry?

Anyone know how to add the pinch zoom to Opera 10?
It worked in the stock Opera 9.7 (build 35541) but 10 appears to just have the usual double tap zoom.

Bump! can anyone tell me the reg entry for the above?? someone must know?....surely
I need help on this too please.
Every other site seems to work besides bbc.
Thanks in advance.
No one else having a problem with the double tap to zoom not working on Opera 9.7 (after ROM 1.72 upgrade) when viewing the BBC website (desktop version not mobile version). Why not give it a try, grateful for advice on how to resolve this or at least what causes this.
what about pinch-to-zoom?

Pinch to zoom works fine. However circumstances are such that I often browse just using one hand to operate; while walking and holding a bottle drink or newspaper etc in the other hand. I need two hands to operate pinch to zoom under such circumstances and almost end up dropping the phone or drink; thus double tap to zoom not working on the BBC web pages is such an inconvenience when being able to do so on other web pages.
Similar problem after 2.13 ROM update on TMOUS, only so far on CNN.com site. Other sites work normally.
PS, my virtual screen width key was 685, not 1024...

The virtual screen width is a point to note, mine is set to 1024. However, default values, and any other values, fail to see double tap to zoom work on the BBC web pages.
Any way to have pinch to zoom exactly the same like in opera 9 ???
Lookin solution for HD2.
BSB tweaks pinch to zoom not works the same.

please
Come on .. wait at least an hour to start the exact same thread over and over ..
The answer is no.
Bump Can't this be solved in the final version?

this is no simple registry hack that someone could do easily. it has to be done from opera. if you like pinch to zoom just install the 9.7 version.
I understand, but what's the point of not supporting that in version 10, in the era of big screen smartphones?
I have 9.7 on my HD2, and it's fine except flash support, since the fix provided somewhere here in the forums doesn't work...

Opera 9.7 was made specifically for the HD2, the only WM (at the time of writing) with multi-touch. Opera 10, however, was made for all windows mobile devices, so it only has generic features. Anyway, the zoom in Opera 10 blows pinch-to-zoom with reflow out of the water. At least you can actually zoom in where you want to, and not zoom in and then find what it was you wanted to zoom in on in the first place!
Thanks for the informative answer. By the way, in 9.7, don't we achieve the same as you mentioned with a double tap to the specific location of the website?
You could probably try zoomer.

have not really tried it personally, but hopefully it'll work.

Nope Zooomer in my opinion sux... It creates this small previewwindow in the buttom.. I do not like that!
I'm just looking for normal pinch to zoom feature!
Hope someone can help!
yes zoomer could work,I'm still using 9.7
OK so then two choices:
Keep Opera 10: Deal with no pinch to zoom
Go back to Opera 9.7: Pinch to zoom but no flash...
...great...

I don't know where you all get the idea there is no flash support for 9.7, Flash works just fine on 9.7 for me.
to be honest in my opinion pinch to zoom in a browser is overated, i find thee tap to zoom in 10 absolutely perfect.

the problem is... sometimes you want to zoom a different amount.. and not having to go to settings to change the percentage.
it's not an easy hack, but I hope someome will do it. I'd sure buy that guy/gal who would, a few pints!
BSB Tweaks does support pinch to Zoom in Opera 10. I have been using it for a few weeks now.

is there a how-to ?
found it...
Does WP7 not support pinch-to-zoom in IE or that a problem with our ROM? All I can do is double tap to zoom in on web pages. Anyone else experience this?
Can't check it right now, but make sure you touch the screen with both fingers at the same time. If you put one before the other, chances are multitouch will not function..
I've been doing it at the same time.
Unfortinatly, Its a known prolem on our HD2 :|
OK, so if it's not a WP7 thing then it's just a driver issue. Since the HD2 fully supports multi-touch it's probably only a short time before we get this working I'm thinking.
