Hi guys! How can I restrict the size of my desktop icons, say to only 64 x 64?

In other words, how do I prevent them from getting accidentally resized?

Very often I end up accidentally resizing them whenever I'm working on some file over at my desktop and a second finger accidentally touches my trackpad and I end up accidentally performing a zoom-in or zoom-out gesture.

May I please clarify, I do not want to disable the zoom-in/out gesture at all, because I find it quite useful; but all I want is to sort of "disable" such feature insofar as my desktop icons are concerned.

I would always want my desktop icons to be displayed in a particular size (their size cannot be increased or decreased by gestures), but at the same time be able to use the zoom-in/out gestures for all other applications (except the desktop).

Thanks in advance for your help! :)
