[SOLVED] Keyboard layouts plugin, icon too big!

wuwei · 2017-02-24 22:53:38

Hi, is it possible to set smaller icon size for Keyboard layouts plugin?
As we can see from screenshot the layout icon is bigger than other various icons showed in main panel.
Thanks.

Right-click the icon and select properties. There should be a slider there to set icon size.

Hi ToZ, as you can see in the attached image no slider for my plugin :-(
Maybe a different version in Linux Mint 18 Sarah?!?

This is the plugin icon aspect in another distro that I'm trying:

Thanks.

Yes. This functionality was added in 2015, but it hasn't yet been officially released.

The only other option is to use a program like inkscape to edit the flag's svg file (probably in /usr/share/xfce4/xkb/flags/us.svg) and resize the image.

ToZ, many thanks, resolved..I didn't knew the flags path, copied the entire folder from Voyager distro in Mint and..vooilà!! :-)

Maybe, it's also possible to add some entry to ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css like in this topic?

Hello and welcome to the forums.

Kind of, yes. But first, are you running the gtk3 version of the plugin? This command will let you know:

ldd $(locate libxkb.so) | grep gtk

If it is gtk3, then you need to get the widget name. Open the panel properties, go to the Items tab and hover your mouse over the plugin name. You should see something like "xkb-7".

Then add this snippet to ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css and replace "xkb-7" with the actual name of your plugin:

#xkb-7>button { padding: 3px; }

...and adjust the padding size to suit,
