acrobat DC pro - dynamic zoom cannot be turned off?

[Andromeda Girl]

dynamic zoom cannot be turned off once you turn it on.

one might assume that once you activate the function, just click it again from the menu to deactivate it.

how do you turn it off? i was struggling to get a page zoomed to how i wanted it to read a document and now it stays on and i cannot use the mouse scroll wheel to scroll down a page for reading.

dynamic zoom just stays on. clicking it again in the menu does not deactivate it.

does anybody know how to turn it off? can it be turned off?

Hi there

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble. As described you are unable to turn off the dynamic zoom

Please try the following steps and see if that helps:

1. Open the Acrobat/Reader DC application

2. Go to View tab > Zoom > Select 'Marquee Zoom'

Regards

Doing that does not turn it off. It merely changes it to Marquee. How do we turn of both settings and get back to normal -- that is, neither Dynamic or Marquee?

Press the Esc key.

Thank you. O guess I should have tried that.

IMHO, this is a clueless, stupid implementation even by Adobe standards. Those 2 settings (Dynamic & Marquee) should be toggles. I'm love to listen to an Adobe developer defend this garbage.

This worked for me:

Activate dynamic zoom and adjust the document as needed.

While holding down the left-click mouse button with dynamic zoom activated, press the escape button.

The pointer should re-appear.

Cheers.

Or, indeed, select another tool, like the pointer select tool.
