I recently started using MATLAB R2024a on my new MacBook. Strangely, the font size of command window is much larger than the one in the Editor. The image below shows the screenshot of my MATLAB:

I found a relevant document in Zoom and Change Desktop Fonts - MATLAB & Simulink (mathworks.com) about the font size:
"By default, the code font is set to monospaced to preserve vertical alignment. When the font is set to monospaced, the actual displayed font in the Editor is different than the font displayed in the Command Window and Command History. This is because monospaced is a logical font, not a physical font. To avoid this discrepancy, specify the font name as a physical font, for example, Courier New."
Following the recommendation, I changed my font to Courier New, but it didn't solve the problem. I also suspected that it may have something to do with the MATRLAB color schemer I'm using, so I turned it off and restarted MATLAB, but it didn't solve the problem either. Could anyone give me some advice?

You can Zoom in and out in the editor. Try switching to the View tab and use the Zoom In or Zoom Out options to adjust the editor zoom level, or click Reset Zoom to return to 100%.

You can also use ctrl+(scroll wheel) to zoom in and out in the Editor.
