Can anyone else verify that this font warning is a bug in 10.0.1?

This looks like a simple bug to me. M10.0.1, MacOS 10.9.5 Macbook Pro f = Cos[x] Plot[f, {x, -1, 1}, PlotLabel -> f] Returns a pink graphic and throws a warning: "specified setting for FontSize cannot be used"

Good that you found this. I didn't have the patience to go through 10 years of stuff that accumulated. I generally don't edit my init.m file, but some of the packages probably did. (When I saw my problems, I had not loaded anything, but there appears to be a mechanism that loads some stuff automatically and silently.) The question is why this caused a problem now, as well as the similar problems I saw during the beta. I did file a bug report during the beta test. george

Hi, I'm running the same system as you Craig. Just typing your code into a new .NB worked fine. Pls see attached. No warning messages. Cheers, David Attachments:

Found it. This was in my old Library/.../Kernel/init.m SetOptions[Plot,PlotStyle-> {Thick}, BaseStyle-> Medium] Removing BaseStyle-> Medium appears to fix the problem.

Thanks, George's approach worked, but now have a bit of work to do as I reconstruct some things I had. Bruce, after copying the previous contents back into Library/Mathematica, I tried your approach two different ways. I tried the shift-launch, but that didn't eliminate the problem. I also tried removing Library/FrontEnd/10.0 Caches/ and that didn't work either. I also tried the delete-output reevaluate and that didn't solve it either. I have a working solution, but the puzzle remains for another day. Thanks, Craig

Thanks Bianca and Rafael, Hmmm, strange... The pink graphic and warning do not appear for me in M9. I am not seeing anything in my init.m(s) that is obviously linked to an Option for Plot.
