I am using IntelliJ IDEA 9.0.2 on Mac OS X - with the Magic Mouse. Whenever I press the command button and move my finger a micrometer or two on the surface of the mouse, IDEA immediately increases or decreases my font size rapidly. How can I disable this feature?

If you need to quickly change the font size while in the editor, press Ctrl+Alt+S to open the IDE settings, go to Editor | General, and select Change font size with Command+Mouse Wheel or Change font size with Control+Mouse depending on your operating system.
Press Ctrl+Alt+S to open the IDE settings and select Editor | General. Select Change font size with Ctrl/Cmd+Mouse Wheel in: Choose Active editor below that checkbox.
I found that you can enable this feature within IntelliJ by opening Preferences ( ⌘, ) > click in the search and then enter the word zoom . Check the box for Change font size (Zoom) with Command+Mouse Wheel . Now you can hold down the Command and scroll your mouse wheel to zoom in and zoom out. Thanks!
Mouse shortcut To do this hold down the Ctrl key and scroll up to increase the font size or down to decrease the font size.
Settings | Editor | Enable Ctrl+MouseWheel changes font size
(On Mac it would be Preferences | Editor | General | Enable CMD+MouseWheel changes font size.)
