[opensuse-kde3] Icons in systray

Hi! Is it possible to change the size of icons in the system tray on the far right of the panel in KDE3? I noticed that in openSUSE 12.2 and above the icons in the system tray (in my case, kmix and klipper) are smaller than in openSUSE 11.3 and they are arranged in two rows instead of one. I attach here screenshots of the systray for opensuse 12.x and opensuse 11.3. Is there a way to change the size of the systray icons in 12.x such that it looks the same as in 11.x? Thanks!

No, it is not (or it's relatively complicated) - See this thread: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde3/2012-07/msg00000.html There's another option - Trinity (http://www.trinitydesktop.org/), where you can change systray icon size with a few clicks, but it has its own issues (and you need to uninstall opensuse's kde3) M@trixX -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner@opensuse.org

This is started from here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/rdiff/KDE:KDE3/kdelibs3?linkrev=base&rev=... I'm not sure if it works. One more link for the above linking thread: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde3/2012-06/msg00029.html -- WBR Kyrill

Thanks Kyrill and Matrixx for sending the links. I have no experience re-building packages. Is there a how-to in particular for kdebase3 and kdelibs3? Thanks! Gianluca On Tue, 15 Oct 2013, Kyrill Detinov wrote:

I have a question about this link: https://build.opensuse.org/package/rdiff/KDE:KDE3/kdelibs3?linkrev=base&rev=... Does this mean that it is possible to change the system tray icon size? It says: "make system tray icons resizable via parameter systrayIconWidth in section [System Tray] in file ~/.kde/share/config/systemtray_panelappletrc" Sorry, I'm just trying to understand this patch.

open file ~/.kde/share/config/systemtray_panelappletrc and in section [System Tray] add systrayIconWidth=XX where XX - the desired icon size. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks! This solved part of the problem. By setting the width to 20 and above the icons are arranged in a single row. However, the icons themselves are not resized. Even if I set the width to 32 they simply get spaced wider apart but remain small. Do I need to set a parameter to allow rescaling? Another question: what is the location of the systray icons in my file system? I could try copying the larger icons from an older distribution. Thanks!

open file ~/.kde/share/config/systemtray_panelappletrc
and in section [System Tray]
add
systrayIconWidth=XX
where XX - the desired icon size. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner@opensuse.org
