Wow is that what that does? And all this time I took for granted that it affected the starting position of zoom (pageup/pagedown) so you just started more zoomed out than normal.

(note: I went looking at the mapedit.pdf to see how I could have misunderstood that. Is it just me or is that command missing?)

It affects map zoom but flags/building icons are fixed relative to this value.
So a flag will take "50% less space" in a province is mapzoom is set to 2 for example.
However by doing so the map looks initially more pixellated. You can then zoom out as you want, but the icons will resize correspondingly smaller...
Is that clear ?
