Guys, what other Nexus devices do you have? I've noticed that both, my N10 and my N4 have that strange behaviour with pinch zooming where if your fingers are too close (anything under 1/3") the gesture won't begin after they are at least that distance apart from each other, this happens in most apps but when I try the Quickpic gallery app, both devices don't display this issue, the gesture begins as soon as you move your fingers away from each other.
Could anyone else see if their devices do this? My sister's N10 (completely stock N10) does the same.
This is a really small issue but it could improve our experience with the device by a lot if we could get the same behaviour across the whole UI, I believe this is a Google imposed software issue, just like the screen calibration but that's another matter.
I was told in one of the kernel threads that this was controlled by the ROM, Rascarlo, could you look into this?
