Loopy - panning / zooming frustrating #478

Hi there, first of all congratulations for this great game! I was already addicted to "Slitherlink" which uses the same game logics and am very happy I found your version with much more intriguing patterns and customization!

But the navigation (panning / zooming) really drives me insane. Only being able to drag with two fingers often causes the whole field to "fling" away (by releasing one finger, then the distance between the released and the "still-on" finger creates a massive push in one direction) halfway over the field and you can't stop it until it has lost inertia. Then you have to scroll back to where you've been before. Also the revealing of new areas just after the inertia has stopped is sometimes irritating. But not as bad as the accidential flinging. This makes playing the game very difficult. And I really like huge puzzles. I'd much much rather have a control where you just drag'n'drop the field by using one finger and scaling it with two fingers.

I think the pan/zooming module is used in other puzzles also, I'd be very happy to choose an "alternative navigation" method in the global settings :)
