Re: Height of Workspace switcher

Do you have multiple monitors?
Does it grow in size of you make the width of the panel larger?

It doesn't appear you can change the height of the row without changing the width of the panel. They are tied together due to the aspect of the view (the geometry of the two monitors side by side).

As an alternative to the workspace switcher, you can middle click on the desktop to get a menu view of all open windows (or you can use the window menu plugin).

Is possibile to set padding of panel or margin of workspace switcher?

I want to remain height of panel as is and the workspace switcher is too big

Do you mean you want to compress the width (or make the width smaller)? As far as a I can see, you can only change the colours of that widget - you can't change borders, margins, or paddings - it seems to want to keep its aspect ratio.
