All of a sudden after using the iPad keyboard dock, after 30 mins using the iPad without the dock the screen zooms in for no reason, cropping the top, bottom and sides, in portrait as well as landscape, and this issue doesn't resolve with a restart This happens system wide, and most times it crops the whole top status bar with time and battery info completely, as if the iPad doesn't know the right zoom to have....

It was a bug to do with the accessibility zoom feature, I tuned it off and everything is fine, that said it's definitely a bug since I wasn't activating the accessibility zoom in any way, it just zoomed wherever the h. It wanted at will....

Triple-Finger tap activates the zoom.

Are you sure you're not accidentally tapping with three fingers on the screen?

I am aware of that but thank you very much for you response, no I didn't accidentally tap it as far as I am aware. That said, since I can't replicate the alleged bug so far, not that I 've tried that much though, it might be my error.
