This is just an annoyance and should be super simple to fix.

I have already set the star drawing width to 1, but the size stays way too large.

I had other charts where width 1 would result in a properly tiny drawing, but this is no longer working.

Is this tied to fonts somewhere?

We think what you are seeing is just due to the zoomed size of your chart. The Star at a size of 1 is a bit larger than other items (such as "Point"), and with your chart zoomed in to be able to view the Numbers Bars, this looks like it is about right.

Please try changing the size to a larger value and see if it becomes bigger. If it does, then this just the way the "Star" is. Again, if you want something smaller, use Point or Diamond, or try some of the other options to see if there is something that works better for you.

At any given zoom level, the star is many times larger than some of the other designs. On a 4k screen, the star at size 1 is about the same size as the point at size 20. The star is a nice visually different option to the other designs, but it just looks silly being so large.
