Hi All, As part of my initial UI and UX work on Xubuntu, i've been focused on improvements to the panel properties dialog and I created a video with a number of suggestions < https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VF-XHI6_37A > and one of them was changing the default panel height. Below are the default panel sizes in other XFCE distros.
Manjaro 18.0.4 & Swag Arch 19.1: 27px Enso: 28px Linux Lite 4.4: 30px Linux Mint 19.1 & GalliumOS 3.0: 32px Galore: 38px MX: 40px (panel is in Deskbar mode) And these are from other distros Ubuntu Mate 19.10: 28px Lubuntu 19.10: 32px Kubuntu 18.04: 36px @ 800x600 and 30px @ 1368x768 or larger My suggestion is to increase it to 28px which is the lowest even number from the sizes listed above and would allow 24px icons to appear in the panel with 2px padding above and below. It is the default I use both on my 1366x768 laptop and 1440x900 desktop. Alternatively we can go up one or two notches to 30px or 32px to have even more padding and improving the panel's visibility at 1080p and higher. It might be good to reach out to the community on twitter and run a poll asking if poeple think it should be changed and what the new default should be. I havent filed this yet as a enhancement report on launchpad, as maybe the decision would be to make this change upstream. Regards, Yousuf Philips
