Pinch zoom on Trackpad not working with Adobe

Ever since updating to Ventura 13.0.1 I'm having strange issues with my trackpad on Adobe programs. The pinch zoom function only. I can move around but then suddenly I can't zoom with the pinch function. There doesn't seem to be a sure way to get it to work again. Sometimes I just need to save my work. Sometimes I have to close the whole program. Sometimes it'll just suddenly start working again. It's awfully frustrating though because this is happening multiple times a day and it's happened with Acrobat, Illustrator, and InDesign.


For more detail, when it occurs in one program it doesn't stop in all programs at the same time. I can still use the pinch function in the other programs.... until one of them suddenly stops working.


I see this was an issue for other people in the forum here that was cleared for them in an update. Clearly it's come back.

Not only Adobe products, this also happens to Figma, even the chrome browser sometimes can't pinch & zoom. I experienced it since the Mac OS Big Sur update, Monterey, until now on Ventura. So I decided to downgrade to Mac OS Catalina and the pinch zoom problem no longer occurs.
