Scaling/resizing objects does not work, possibly due to keyboard not having a single key for ]

My Nordic keyboard demands that to make ] i type (alt gr) + (9) 

I've tried Sharpkeys and every combination of alt gr + shift plus 9 in any order or without some part and other with more parts, and nothing is making a blind bit of difference. Being able to resize objects is a rather key ingredient for decoration, and as is I'm having to go without.

Is there a known solution for this, or could there be an additional way of resizing something without having to rely on the oh so unreliable ] ?

It can't be just the Nordic keyboards that thinks the ] does not need its own key?

Cause I really like having big potted plants, and the ones in game just won't do as is ☹️
