If I understand you correctly, changing (or adding, if not present) the line 
 \preview_scale_factor
in the "preferences" file in your ~/.lyx directory to have another value (mine 
is 1.25) will change the size of the math-preview fonts.
  So my ~/.lyx/preferences file has

\preview_scale_factor 1.25


   Hope that helps!

Subject: Increasing the equation and font size for ease of creation


The displayed fonts and symbols are too small, especially when working 
with super and subscripts, etc. I have been working with MathType for a
 
number of years, and it allows the displayed equations and fonts to be 
zoomed to 200%, 400%, 800%, and other. This makes it much easier to 
select, copy, and paste into the fields. I haven't found any way to
 zoom 
the displayed equations and fonts in LyX. Has anyone done this or is it
 
impossible? If it can be done, I'd like to find out how it would be
 done. 
Thanks
