spyder change editor default font/scale/zoom
Right clicking in the text window there are menus Zoom in
, Zoom out
and Zoom reset
Seems that I didn't inspect Preferences
attentively enough initially.
Right answer is:
Preferences → Text and margin font style → Size
EDIT: updating answer according to comments.
In the latest versions of Spyder IDE path to changing font size is:
Tools → Preferences → General → Appearance → Fonts
EDIT2 (since march 2021):
Tools → Preferences → Appearance → Fonts
