Pinch to zoom for tp2?

Is there a working pinch to zoom mod for the tp2? I tried one that's floating around but couldn't get it to work in Opera Mini or 10.

The only thing I seen that has pinch to zoom is in Timberwolf's Max Sense Rom.

the link says Opera 10 doesnt support it, but 9.7 does and it works.. i think this was for HD2 also...

quick search says maybe a lil sketchy since TP2 doesnt support multitouch and pinch to zoom requires muli-touch...

might work a little for ya tho

I tired it myself a month ago and it didn't work the way I wanted, nor did it work with Opera 10. It's very picky and just not 100% functional for the TP2. I decided to uninstall and live without it

I don't see how this would work as advertised on a device whose screen is incapable of recognizing more than one contact point

pinch to zoom not does work on my iphone using opera mini. the novelty wears off and gets annoying imo. nice to have, but definitely prefer the one tap zoom of opera.

I agree. Pinch to zoom is better suited to bigger screens where you might often use one hand to hold the device and another to navigate the screen. I prefer the single-handed approach common with phones equipped with ~3.6" screens.
