How to resize objects on mac (nordic keyboard)

★ Novice

I'm having trouble resizing my objects on sims 4. I have a macbook air, fairly new, not even a year old yet. I can make things bigger by pressing `å`alone, but I can't seem to make them smaller again. I've tried changing my keyboard to US but it changes back when I enter the game. I've tried every possible combination. The ctrl + `and ctrl + z, all of them, but nothing seems to work. I have as the title says a nordic keyboard (Danish to be exact) and I can't find the right keys or the right combination. I hope somebody is able to help cause I really need to resize things to make my houses look better.

Thanks for helping in advance Standard smile)

It shouldn't change back when you load the game. In System Preferences > Keyboard > Input Sources is the US keyboard showing like this:

Could you add in the British keyboard and see if that helps?

 

You should be using the [ and ] keys, as shown on the keyboards.

Hopefully someone with a French keyboard can help you, or you can post in the French forum. In the meantime, you can add a UK or US keyboard layout which will allow you to resize objects. System Preferences > Keyboard > Input Sources > Edit then click the + in the bottom left corner of the window to add another keyboard setup.

@EmmaBTS02 I tried everything until I found it, and for me (I have a Swedish keyboard) I could downsize with the key with these symbols:' *
