Nightly d08e14c (4 Jan 2016) on Win 7 HP

The Zoom level was recently fixed for the nightlies on Win 7. See https://musescore.org/en/node/88066. As far as I can see, this has fixed most of the problems, though text rendition is less sharp than it was with MS 2.0.2 (monitor less than 100 dpi).

However, lyrics are being rendered too small in Win 7 compared to the size in MS 2.0.2. Create a score with some lyrics in MS 2.0.2 with 11pt text, and reopen the score (in Win 7) in a nightly. You will immediately see the difference.

I'm not seeing it. Please post the specific score you are having problems with, and perhaps screenshots demonstrating how it looks on your system.

Be aware that the big change between 2.0.2 and current nightlies isn't so much the DPI change - which affects overall user interface appearance - but rather, the change to an entirely new font rendering system, in order to eliminate the differences we formerly saw between OS's. So it is definitely not unusual to see *slight* differences in rendering here. Basically, 2.0.2 rendered inconsistently, nightlies should render more consistently, but that does indeed mean different from 2.0.2.

Oops, my mistake. I've compared the nightly with MS 2.0.2 again and everything looks OK. The issue can be closed.
