Description

Hi there's just a minor issue with upscaling the tex math in "Math Settings"

There is a lower bound on downscaling it (> 0) but there is not upper bound on scaling up. So for example I can have it scale up to 100000000% which would just take make the entire website unreadable

Could there be an upper bound to scaling too ?

Research direction

Start by locating the Math Settings control for scaling and compare its existing lower-bound validation with the requested upper bound. Done means excessively large values such as 100000000% are rejected or constrained while normal scaling remains usable.
