+1 to this

After updating to the latest version 5.0, the font size becomes too small. Please add an option to increase font size (or restore the font size back to what it was in version 4.1.0).

Why would you want to modify the size of the font for solely this rather than your system...? I've not this problem via KDE because I have properly configured kcm_fonts. For Windows, does this not adhere to the preferences configured at ms-settings:fonts?

Me too, I need to change font size. I'm using a 14' FHD display and everything is too small in the GUI app.

I found a workaround.

Go to: [CzkawkaDir]\share\themes\WhiteSur-dark\gtk-4.0

Modify gtk.css to:

@import url("resource:///org/gnome/theme/gtk.css");

* { -gtk-dpi: 150; }

Substitute 150 with whichever DPI you want to use.

This worked for me with version 5.02 on Windows 10.

I had my video settings set to 1920x1080 and the master magnification at 150%, but things on this app were too small until making this css change.

Where I put it in the filesystem required re-running the editor as administrator to be able to save the change, and the app then needed a restart. But afterwards, my eyes were no longer straining to read what's presented.

If this is implemented, at the very least, for users such as myself, who prioritize consistency more than all else, don't neglect to add an option to adhere to the system's preference.
