I cant enlarge o make mi desktop icons smaller with my track pad. help guys!!

[Nicogarcia]

I have a macbook pro (got it june 2008) and it has a multi touch track pad but i can't en large or make my desktop icons smaller. The multitouch is working fine with enlarging photos in preview and enlarging and making fonts smaller on websites and stuff, it's working perfectly except when i want to make my desktop or finder icons smaller o bigger. Help Guys I'm going nuts!!!

In Leopard the pixel / icon zoom option was put under Finder Preferences > Advanced.
In SL the option is under System Prefs > Trackpad > Pinch open & Close.

I don't think the trackpad can do that. You can change icon size under View -> Show View Options, though.

I don't think the trackpad can do that. You can change icon size under View -> Show View Options, though.

Or if you are on Snow Leopard, you can chance icon sizes in Finder windows on the bottom right of the window.

SL. Desktop Icons & in finder.. Pinch open & close on the trackpad changes the icon size.
