Thank you for the problem report. Indeed, I do not see any way to change font size for SQL Editor window. Even when I try to edit font size manually in Preferences > Appearance > Fonts > Editor it does not apply the change.

we need to add a preference setting for that as the curent font-settings only affect the modeling-part of WB

The font for sql query editor is now also taken from preference setting for "Editor" in Appearance->Fonts
For the font-setting only affect newly opened query/editor tabs.
confirmed in repository.

An entry has been added to the 5.2.21 changelog:

It was not possible to increase the font size of text in the SQL Editor.

MySQL Workbench has been changed so that fonts set in the Workbench Preferences dialog now also affect the SQL Editor.
