Zoom in keyboard shortcut on Macs

[Tomas Karlsson-2]

I have searched the mail-list and web for answer to this so here goes.

The shortcut commands for Macs should command-+. When i hit command-+ on my MBP  ImageJ  zooms out - not in. I have tried this on a stationery Mac with a number pad and if i hit command-+ on the number pad it work correctly, but if i enter the combination with the key that above the letter section of the keyboard  - it also zooms out instead of in.  The way to get around this is to use the commands without the command key - this however is unusual for Mac users (Just as it would be for Windows users not using CTRL ).

Should it be this way or is it a bug ?

Best regards,

This bug, which occurs with non-US keyboards (e.g., Swedish and German), is fixed in the ImageJ 1.45k daily build.
