# Highlights

## Pinch-to-zoom simulation

This is a long time requested feature (#24).

To simulate "pinch-to-zoom": <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+_click-and-move_.

More precisely, hold <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> while pressing the left-click button. Until the left-click button is released, all mouse movements scale and rotate the content (if supported by the app) relative to the center of the screen.

Concretely, scrcpy generates additional touch events from a "virtual finger" at a location inverted through the center of the screen.


## Bugfixes

Pasting (e.g. via <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>v</kbd>) was broken in some cases (#1658). The fix would have required a new hotfix version (v1.15.2), but since pinch-to-zoom is ready, just go for v1.16 right now.

In addition, some devices apparently do not support the <kbd>WAKEUP</kbd> key, so inject <kbd>POWER</kbd> on start to turn the device screen on.
