Hi Heck.
Thanks for the reply. OS is windows 11.
I meant 2.4 only. The same issue persists in 2.5 as well.
One more thing I observed is that the title and menu bars had identical colors
and there was no distinct border between them.
For this reason I was preferring to use 2.38 only.
This is not in just one pc. In two PCs I had, one at home, one at school.
But I will miss out the features in 2.4,2.5.
Finally I decided to post it to the LyX team.
Now, interestingly, while trying to take a screenshot, I changed the display
scaling to max 175 to get a better image of the three versions 2.38, 2.4.5, and
2.5.0.
To my surprise, I could not differentiate them. All of them had title bar with
light blue bg as in windows.
When i went back to 100% scaling, things seem a little better, and titlebar
color also has become normal (lightblue bg).
So now, I have set the display to 125% scaling to make it look better.
I am still wondering, why was there a change in behavior. Could there be an
issue with display scaling aspect of the software.
Thanking you, Ganesh

Hi LyX Team.
Thanks for your efforts in bringing out the version 2.5 with the newly added
feature.
I seem to have issues with the menu and UI text font thickness or contrast.
Since the version 2.4 was introduced, I find all the menu and UI text seem a
little washed out with a little less contrast and seem a bit difficult to read.
You mean 2.5, yes?
I dont know if there are additional settings in LxY or the operating systems
settings.
Adjusting 'cleartype' lcd screen calibration did not improve the menu text
display.
Or, does it have to any changes in the QT-GUI parameters used in the LyX
development?
What OS are you on? How did you install LyX?
