Pinch in gesture issue

Bugs or Unexpected Behavior
1

Hi.

So, I have this global trackpad config Pinch-in to quit dock app with trigger condition set to "Trigger while mouse over dock". Triggering it on dock app icons works but when pinching out to zoom in on a browser content or in Framer canvas, for example, that's when the gesture gets blocked. App content zoom in/out no longer works in general.

I'm not sure why the gesture would be blocked even when I'm doing pinch out, not pinch in. Thanks.

unfortunately the pinch gestures are quite special because they intercept the system events. It has beeng a long time since I worked on them but I think I couldn't block them based on conditions for performance reasons. I'll re-check whether this is still true.

Thanks again!
