[Panel] Task bar setup

[ezhan]

Want to try KDE as my primary system. Installed in VM to see how and what.

I few questions about setting the taskbar up:

1. Is it possible to make the huge KDE logo smaller (same size as Windows logo)?

2. Is it possible to make the tray icons smaller and so make it 4-row alignment (same I use in Windows)?

3. Same question for the clock.

1) Not 100% sure how, the icons are scaled with the size of the panel. A different Plasma Style might use different padding and thus reduce the size, so it may be worth looking at different Styles, or possibly looking at modifying the panel graphics manually to change the border/padding.
2) Sort of - you can use a tweaked version of the systemtray https://github.com/psifidotos/plasma...y-latte-tweaks (I use this myself -- you don't need Latte Dock for this). It isn't perfect, but does have some spacing and sizing options not seen in the stock tray. It allows me to have the small icons on a thin-ish panel. You can set it to use a max of 5 before it adds a new row.
3) Same as #1, I think, or look at different clock widgets that may have more options.

There may be an option to change the size in System Settings Icon section, but this is no longer present in the latest Plasma versions.
They also changed the system tray, making the icons bigger and single-row when the panel is slimmer. Which is why I went to the tweaked one.
