OS X Mavericks: Disabling Smart Zoom In Safari? “Smart Zoom” is a feature of the new version of Safari in OS X Mavericks and it’s triggered with a simple double-tap on the track pad. Whilst very useful for quickly zooming in and out of websites etc, its also very easy to trigger, which is irritating.

How can one disable this in Safari ?
You can disable Smart Zoom by going to System Preferences → Trackpad → Scroll &amp; Zoom and unchecking the Smart zoom gesture.
