      Just take a look here
      https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/getting_started/configuration/hardware.html#numpad-emulation
      Nothing! Just bare mention of numerals. What about Num*, Num+, Num-, Num., Num/, NumLock?!

          Well / already does the same as numpad /. Numpad period isn’t remapped. Although you can access frame selected thru view menu or the tilde view pie menu. I’m not sure about numpad + and -. I believe they are mapped to – and =. You can also choose select more and less from select menu. I generally recommend that people not use emulate numpad, because it does knock out other hotkeys like selection mode in edit mode. Instead use one of the other 6 methods. If you’d like more info on any of these just let me know. 

          1. View menu

          2. Navigation Gizmo on the right. 

          3. Tilde pie menu.

          4. Alt+middle mouse button drag. 

          5. 3d viewport: navigation addon that comes with blender.

          6.  Pie menu addon that also comes with blender. Hotkey is alt+q once addon is turned on.

            One more thing. I’ve just learned some cheapo wireless numpads don’t in fact issue true numpad codes. Instead they “regurgitate” the alphanumeric equivalents of the intended num commands. Does that interfere with Blender somehow?

              I don’t know, never had one of those. But if the price is similar, better to get a decent one then.

                When you browse products priced similar to a cheapo you get not the cheapest cheapo. That’s usually how it goes. I don’t have much money but I said screw it and got wireless  EPOMAKER EK21

                Buy once, cry once, don’t $&c# on the environment.
