[Solved] tweaking the system tray

Hi there!
Is there a way to get rid of the border around the system tray element or change the border-color?
Where would the separate parts of the system tray be stored and can the single icons be altered?
thanks in advance!

Re: [Solved] tweaking the system tray

To the first part of your question: if you right-click an empty location of the Notification Area (a little tricky sometimes to get the mouse in the right location) > Properties, a dialog box pops up where you can untick "Show frame." You can also adjust icon size there, and decide to a certain extent what shows or not. At least, that's how it is on 4.10 for me.

Aaaaah, perfect! Thank you, Jerry! Well, yeah, indeed it didn't come to my mind to look for the 'properties' inbetween the icons ...
