Hi! I am using a new panel layout with 3 rows, because it lets me lay things better. The problem with this is that then the whisker menu icon appears small and centered in the available space. Longer icons that are horizontal (WinXp-like, to put it simple and plain) work fine, but I want it to look well with square icons, just like when you have a single row panel layout. I will attach a screenshot of what it looks like right now, a patch to "fix" the issue, and a second shot with how it looks like with a 3-rows panel and my patch applied.
Created attachment 6034 How it looks like right now This is how the current whisker menu icon looks. In the shot, it's the first icon, in the top-left corner of the screen. You can see there's a lot of empty space around the icon because the row-height is used as the max icon height.
Created attachment 6035 This is how I would like it to be You can see the icon look as it would look in a single row layout. It fills the whole panel width and it's easier to see and click.
Created attachment 6036 +1 row big icon patch Nothing magical. I think that, in this case, it would be better to set the max icon height to match the max icon width so that it allows for square icons. As far as I tested this doesn't break horizontal xp-esque menu buttons, but I only did a couple of quick tests, admittedly.
Created attachment 6037 +1 row big icon patch Ooops. Previous one broke the case for +1 rows in the panel where you wanted to have the whisker icon to occupy one single row. This one fixes that.
I'm sorry, but I consider the behavior you want it to have to be a bug. It doesn't match any other plugin I have tested (especially not the default applications menu), and it would make the button huge the more rows your panel has.

Don't worry, I will keep it as a local patch then. Sorry for the noise. I find it weird that there's no width limit but there's an height limit though, but to each his/her own I suppose. Thanks anyway for the prompt reply :)
