Ctrl + without numeric keypad

Hello,
I'm trying to do the shortcut "CTRL +" but I'm on a laptop so there's no numeric keypad. Normally, to type just the "+" I do "Shift 1" (since the + is on the 1 key), but here if I do "ctrl shift 1" it doesn't make "ctrl +".

Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks

Configuration: Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8) / Chrome 35.0.1916.153

  1. Hi @Souafeur
    Unfortunately, it's not to do a zoom, it's a shortcut in the 3D software Blender to extend a selection.

    The problem arises in general whenever I need to create a shortcut that involves a symbol that is "in the second position" on a key...

    Thanks anyway for your reply :)

    1. Oh really... Well, apart from finding an external numeric keypad, I've never found solutions for Blender.

    2. Arf...
      I was happy to find the numpad emulation feature in Blender; I thought my problem was solved, but in the end, it doesn't fix the shortcut issues...

      Well, I can always change the software shortcuts, but I'm convinced that someone would have a trick for this kind of shortcuts in general.

    3. Oh no! Did you try adding the Shift key to your combination? I don't know if it works, but I don't have many ideas otherwise..
      Sorry..

    4. Yes, but that's a whole different shortcut ^^
