Bug Description

The default hotkeys are Zoom In = F1, Zoom Out = F2, etc...

I was planning to change the Zoom In/Out hotkeys in Preferences - Schematic Editor Options - Controls to use Zoom In = NumPad + and Zoom Out = NumPad -

The issue is, that the Set Hotkey dialog actually recognizes the NumPad +/- keystroke and closes, but it doesn't accepted the Hotkey assignments. F1 and F2 still stays as before without further notice.

Using the non-NumPad + and - keys seem to work, but they might be used in a different way later on as these are just different keys.

Expected behaviour: Kicad recognizes different keys as such.
