Description Christian H 2021-12-14 23:12:50 UTC 
SUMMARY
***
We should change the default shortcut of the zoom plugin.
On windows its Meta++ and Meta+KPPlus. Maybe we should do this as well. Meta+= (zoom in) and Meta+- is not very consistent. Also on an german keyboard i have to press meta shift 0 (to get an =) this is not very handy.

***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press Meta+= to zoom in
2. Pres Meta+- to zoom out

OBSERVED RESULT
Well everything works. But the usability could be improved and it should be a quick win.

EXPECTED RESULT
1. Press Meta++ / Meta+KPPlus to zoom in
2. Pres Meta+- / Meta+KPMinus to zoom out

Seems reasonable to add them. You could even submit a patch to do this yourself!
