Using version 2.8 on the Macintosh, I have been trying to make the fingering numbers (for cello) a bit bigger to suit my aging eyes.
I put in:
\override Fingering #'font-size = #2
This made the fingering numbers about four times bigger. So I tried reducing the number as far down as #0.2 in various increments, but the numbers stayed the same size, that is, about four times as big. That is bigger than I want -- I'm really looking for maybe 50% bigger.
Am I doing something wrong? Is this something unusual about the Mac?
