Summary0010390: Pinch gesture not responding
DescriptionHi, I remember from v8 that it was possible to pinch the Editor, at least horizontally (and in some buggy miraculous occasions vertically).
The resulting behavior was a expansion reduction of :
- the track height vertically (when working)
- the time scale, horizontally.

I found it very useful and I wished both had been working seemlessly.

Now on 9.7, it seems like none of them is working, and yet I kind of remember the horizontal one still working on 9.0.

Is that normal?
Steps To Reproduce
- try to pinch (in or out) with 2 fingers in the editor area in the X or Y axis.
- in the X direction, it should expand time scale.
- in the Y direction, it should expand track size.

Observed behavior:
- only one finger is selected and serves as corner for box selection.
Additional InformationPS: I'm sorry if that's just a wrong setting on my side. I did spend quite a bit of time double-checking my settings first, but as I don't always understand all the consequences, I may I missed some.

I realize this behavior may never have existed.
I may have confused this feature with the one that exists for the track pad.

So if possible, I'll make that a feature request rather than a bug
