Seems to work for me? How does it not work for you exactly? What does set guifont? show? What about just manually calling :set guifont=Monaco:h20 in MacVim?

What do you mean by "unable to adjust font size" anyway? You mean not able to set font at all right?

Thanks for your quick response.

When I change set guifont=Monaco:h14 in ~/.gvimrc to a larger number, it reads, for example, set guifont=Monaco:h24, but the size of the font does not get any bigger. Is there somewhere else I need to change the font?

Sorry, ignore my last email. It tried it again, and now the font size seems to be working OK. Thanks again for responding.

Good to know. I'll just close the issue then. One reason that might have happened is you have "Quickstart" enabled in the Advanced setting, which would mean it has an old version of your vimrc preloaded.
