How to increase screen font size in lyx 2.3? (lyx 2.2.3 works)

I want to increase the screen font size in lyx 2.3 because it is extremely small.

However, when I use ctrl+mouse, the font size of some words change, but not the whole document. Please see attached 2.3_before and 2.3_after.2.3_before
2.3_after

When I turn back to lyx 2.2.3, there is no such problem. Please see attached 2.2.3_before and 2.2.3_after.2.2.3_before
2.2.3_after

It is super annoying and I don't know how to solve it. I don't want to use lyx but I have to....

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much!

A way to get what you want is Tools -> Preferences -> Screen Fonts and change values to your needs.

Indeed, the solution in Lyx 2.3.5.2 in kubuntu is, as mentioned above, Ctrl + scroll wheel mouse to increase the screen font back.

Indeed, if I use the touchpad on my laptop a much smaller screen font size might suddenly appear. The solution is simple use: Ctrl + scroll wheel mouse to increase the screen font again.

I have a similar problem in that after I installed LyX 2.3 it worked fine for a while, but now all LyX files, including the tutorial, display so small as to be unreadable. I haven't been able to discover any way to get them to display at normal size, including uninstalling and re-installing LyX 2.3. I have an HP laptop running Win10. I'll try to go back to an earlier version of LyX.
