Hey peoples!

I noticed in Photoshop, the pinch-zoom ability on a trackpad works great to zoom into files open on Photoshop.

How do you turn that feature on in Illustrator?

You program your time machine for the year 2018, when AI CS 8 will finally support it. No deal ATM.

Dear Adobe: please fix this issue. It IMMENSLY improves workflow to be able to zoom in with two fingers!
