Kindle Paperwhite 2, gesture for changing font size
I have this Kindle and from time to time when I want to turn a page I manage to open a small popup with font sizes, it changes the size to something bigger and closes again. I tried to do it on purpose, but it never works, it turns a page. It drives me mad, I'd like to avoid it. I did not find anything in documentation either. Does anybody know the gesture or is it just a glitch in software?

Hmm. Not seen that myself, I do know that to turn the page you should keep to the middle sides, and not go to far up or down.

It should only happen when you swipe up or down the screen using two fingers.

I tried that, but it works very randomly. But I guess I should avoid a gesture that is not completely horizontal, thanks.

I thought it was more a verticle pinching gesture. Pinch in to reduce font, pinch out to increase font.
Never happens to me by accident., have you got a bad cut on your finger IvanIV which is squelching open when you turn the page. |

When I mentioned horizontal, I meant page turning gesture, sometimes it's more an arc than a straight line and that's what probably gets confused for a pinch I know I could just touch the screen in left/right part of the screen, but I find swiping more comfortable. Thanks for help everybody, I think I got it now. I would have never thought you could use pinch to resize the font size. |
