I can change screen fonts (lyx 2.3.6 running on Debian) by Tools>Preferences>look&feel>screen fonts. BUT I CAN'T SAVE THE SETTINGS AS CHANGED.  Lyx always reverts to the font size it was in before I made the change.  Suggestions?


First thing: Before clicking OK in the fonts dialog, make sure that "Apply to current session only" is not checked.

Second thing: LyX will try to write the changes to its preferences file (in the "screen & fonts" section). On Ubuntu and Mint, that file is ~/.lyx/preferences. I suspect it's the same on Debian, but if in doubt check Help > About LyX for the user directory. If LyX can't write to that file due to a permissions issue, the changes would not get saved.
