I just realized that it probably isn't supposed to work, as the scaling of snapshots is restricted to discrete values, so continuous scaling won't work. > The odd thing is that all these other programs like Yep, EagleFiler, > Papers, Yojimbo, seem to work with the zoom pinching even though they > are not nearly as sophisticated as Skim in terms of PDF viewing/ > editing. So my guess is that > Apparently Apple *does* implement this in PDFKit on Intel machines (I can only see that on PPC it is not implemented). I explained above why it doesn't work in snapshots. The reason it does not work in the main PDF view is that we override the magnification method for something else (the magnification tool). Apple should have warned us developers about this, or otherwise use a method name we cannot so easily overwrite. So I consider this an Apple bug, and filed a bug report with them. > By the way, the three finger swipe does work in Skim!

BTW, what do you mean with "in BibDesk"? Where in BibDesk?
