How do I change the Finder Sidebar size?

It an earlier preview build of Lion, I was able to change the Finder sidebar text size to make it smaller. The default was too large, taking up too much real estate. Unfortunately, I don't remember what I did to fix it. Finder Preferences and View Options don't seem to offer any option to change the sidebar's font.


Does anyone know?

Go to System Preferences/General and check the Sidebar Icon Size box. Make your selection. This controls the Mailbox sidebar and the Finder sidebar.
