It affects the screen (and not the Lilypond output at all). Go to View -> Size -> 6 pixels (now, why is that showing as "6 pixel(s)" on my screen? no translation for it in en_GB?) and you'll see the result. It's just that there are two options in the config dialog for this, to set up default values separately for single- or multiple-staff notation views. My inclination is that single-staff views should default at 8 and multiple staffs at 6, but at the moment they're both 8 (and in any case the config dialog setting is currently ignored by the notation view). > Since we can zoom in and out of the page, I'm not certain what differnce this > makes. Zooming looks pretty ropey in notation -- you get a lot of missing stems and the like. Changing the font size works much better where you actually want to do work at a different size from the default rather than just taking an overview. Ideally the zoom would work by re-drawing in a different font size (and then scaling that, if we're at a very extreme zoom) so we'd have the best of all worlds, but unfortunately that would appear to be much too slow, and also it doesn't produce quite the same results (the spacing differs).
