- Due to an operation recently, my vision is slightly impaired (temporary i hope)
On my ipad I can tap with 3 fingers to zoom in or out EVERYTHING which is a great help right now. I do miss this functionality op my PB (which i use more often).
Is there a way to have such accessibility functionality on my PB also?
NB
The pinch in/out functionality is known but only work on web pages or pictures and such. I need to be able to zoom everything from home screen to email to settings to...

There isn't a 3 finger-tap zoom +/- on the PB, but you can use 2- fingers to do the same.
Whatever you want to zoom into (+) you can put 2 fingers on the screen and expand/move/stretch/flare outward.
To zoom in (-) just use 2 fingers to pinch (or bring the tip of fingers toward each other from an expanded position) on ur PB screen.
Hope this helps !Daruba likes this.11-02-11 10:55 AMLike 1 -
Thanks anyways!11-02-11 11:12 AMLike 0 - On some webpages, you can zoom the page by a quick DOUBLE-tap. Another will double tap shrink it back down. Or you can pinch/zoom - grab two imaginary diagonal points and pull apart (does not work in the email app). Reading your reply - I think you've found the limitations unfortunately.
And also - a hopefully, speedy recovery.Daruba likes this.11-02-11 11:51 AMLike 1 -
- Unfortunately, pinch/zoom does not work in all areas of the pb. It does not work on the home screen, nor the Main Options screen, nor the email app or Memo, nor Appworld, etc. I could use it in email - some emails come with small, html fonts.12-10-11 10:05 AMLike 0

So far this and the inability to bookmark audio/video are the only things that disappoints me with the Playbook.12-11-11 08:01 AMLike 0 -
