Command-equal fails to zoom in text-box tool.

[jAffinitySerif]

I commonly press command-hyphen and command-equal to zoom outward and inward. But when I have my cursor inside a text box on Affinity Designer, command-equal fails with a plink sound.

If I check app prefs, I don’t see a conflicting keyboard shortcut. 

macOS Monterey 12.2.1 (21D62)

Affinity Designer 1.10.4

Bizarrely I need to use Shift + Command + =(equals) to get the zoom in, Command + - (hyphen) gives me zoom out. Only when the text cursor is in the text frame.

For what it's worth, on Windows the zoom in/out shortcuts are Ctrl+= and Ctrl+-, and both work for me within a text frame in Designer.

I get the same thing in all 3 Affinity apps. I am using macOS Catalina, so I do not think this is related to the macOS version. It is just some weird quirk of the Mac versions of the Affinity apps.
