Have you tried Settings -> Editor -> General settings -> Editor settings -> Font -> Choose?

perhaps : Ctrl + scroll wheel
CB-13834, plugins-sdk-2.25.0 : Collector-2.6.5, AddOnForQt-5.1.2
1- Win7 Business Pack1 64bits : wx-3.2.8, gcc-15.2.0,
2- OpenSuse::Leap-15.6-64bits : wx-3.2.8;gtk3-u, gcc-15.2.0,

i am afraid, but you can't change the font size of the settings pages. Maybe over some windows settings, but c::b is not optimized for this, so you will get artifacts. A better solution would be to use the magnidier glass on windows. I think there are also tools on linux for this...

I am here for the same reason.
How the editor font can increase its size globally.

So, it is not so much friendly, this option? Yes because it is hidden beside of font selection and all users, eye scan settings for numbers 8, 10, 12 (which is the size).

It is something which need change? I don't think so.
After 2 eye scans of all settings, I google "How to change codeblock editor font size" and I am here!

chameleon: What are you talking about? I don't understand. The option I've described controls the font size in the editor. Have you tried it? Does it work?

Works for me (although dynamically change the screen font size with CTRL and wheel is much more convenient - excellent in fact).

However it is worth noting (as I didn't find it documented, and Dr Google didn't seem to know either) that the font size set in

Settings -> Editor -> General settings -> Editor settings -> Font

is also the font size setting that it used to output paper copy to a printer (for when you want to use a quill pen and ink on the paper copy  ;)  ).

The default of 7 was tiny on paper and so I increased to 9 (which was still quite small).  In glorious color too  :)
