Trackpad zoom on Google Maps is way too fast/sensitive.
Supposedly this was fixed per:
Scrolling zoom +/- in Google Maps too fast with Brave
…but I am still experiencing the issue.
Confirmed the maps are zooming correctly in other browsers.
Version 1.39.111 Chromium: 102.0.5005.61 (Official Build) (x86_64)
MacOS 10.14.6
I’m actually seeing this same behavior myself (I think). Let me reach out to the team about this and see if we have a regression on our hands.
@whydoihavetosignup,
So not sure exactly what happened but the issue is now not occurring on Brave stable when I zoom in/out. It’s not occurring on Nightly or Beta builds either, but I do see this behavior still on Dev build.
Can you try disabling Hardware Acceleration in settings to see if this resolves the issue?
You’ll find this in Settings --> Additional Settings --> System --> Hardware Acceleration
disabling hardware acceleration did not fix. Nor did disabling all shields.
A workaround I found is, holding command and then trackpad zoom causes the zoom in/out to work smoothly as I expect and see in other browsers.
After doing this once, the map will zoom smoothly until I reload the page. Then I have to do the cmd+zoom trick again.
what is cmd+ trackpad zoom actually doing?
Would you mind testing this in both a private browsing window and (if that has the same results) when using a fresh browser profile and see if you get the same behavior?
