    Increase font size for time/date in system tray?

    I posted this thread by mistake in Kubutu 20.10 so her it is again. The size of the time/date on Kubuntu 21.04 in system tray is so tiny, and I have not been able to find an option to make it display similar size as Kubuntu 20.10, which is perfect. I've tried different fonts, but they're all tiny. Is there any way to change that or we're stuck until the next version after January? I posted this thread by mistake in Kubutu 20.10,

    Probably not without resizing the panel, as it should scale to the height. Or a different plasma style that uses different padding amount, or worst case digging into the code.
    Another alternative is to try a different clock - the Event Calendar allows for changing the size of the second line, among other features.

        Try using Better Inline Clock.

        Right click on the Panel and select Add Widgets and at the top select Get New Widgets > Download New Plasma Widgets and search for Better Inline Clock

        Then

        Right click on the existing clock in the Panel and select Show Alternatives, and look for the new clock you installed. There are plenty of customisation options for font, size and layout.
        Constant change is here to stay!

          Or select to show only time.
          This issue should be fixed in Plasma 5.22 (you can put time and date in a single row).
