Text scaling regression in the ChatGPT macOS app after recent update

Thanks for the reply and for looking into this. Previously, I was using the built-in Command-plus shortcut inside the ChatGPT macOS app itself to increase the text size/content scale. After increasing it, both code blocks and regular text scaled together, and there was no noticeable font-size mismatch between those two types of content. I was not using macOS system-level zoom, display scaling, or any related system shortcuts. One very good part of the previous experience was that I only needed to set it once when I first started using ChatGPT. After that, I did not need to adjust it again in later sessions, even after ChatGPT updates. Another very good part was that this scaling applied globally across all chat views. All of the above were part of the previous behavior and user experience. Thanks.
