It is ridiculous that a modern GUI doesn’t allow changing font size.  
On Windows 11, it doesn’t behave properly with screen scaling.  
That seems to be the case for Linux, going back years.  
I have to shove my face into the screen to be able to read anything.

```auto
type or paste **code** here

```

This website's preferences let me change the font size.

The editor says I can change the \*\*font\*\*-\*weight\* in this message (though it lies)

I would ask for help, but there isn’t anyone who can help or cares to help.

At this point, this is just a bug.

SAME Issue, here, but in my case, I´musing a 13pol notebook and the fonts are giants and the menus don´t apear all of them. I cannot downsize it in anyway.

I´ve got a turnaround in [Changing Anaconda Navigator display font size | Kaggle](https://www.kaggle.com/discussions/getting-started/174539). By the uncheck “Enable high DPI scaling” feature, anaconda navigator window was scaled properly on the screen.

Unchecking this feature makes my font size way too small. Checking it makes fonts way too huge.
