Yes, numpad scrolling can be a bit odd on some computers / keyboards. I always turn off the num lock, then it works just like the arrow keys.

This is an OS "feature" where SHIFT overrides active NUMLOCK to return the non-numlock key. So "SHIFT + NUM_4" is converted to "LEFT_ARROW" before forwarding the input to DF.
