Hey Jasper, Just started using the SVN panel. Very nice setup! I've noticed at a relatively small panel size (30) that the icons for launchers, the Xfce menu plugin, and system tray icons all seem rather small for the size of the panel. I also resized the panel to 96 to see what would change, but the system tray icons stayed the same, and the launcher icon maxed out around 48 (estimated). The menu icon, on the other hand, kept resizing, and looked good at 96. I'm not entirely sure how the icon loading works, especially with PNG v. SVG, but would it be possible to make the images a bit larger? For the menu and launchers, taking the icons out of GtkButtons would do a bit to make them use more space. (I'm actually thinking of gnome-panel here, which seems to do better at a smaller size, whereas xfce4-panel scales better as the size increases.) For the system tray icons, I have no idea if they can get bigger, or if they should, but at least wrapping to multiple lines would be preferred when the size increases. Sorry for the meta-bug, and I don't mean to complain; the 4.4 panel is very nice!
Yeah, I think this could be optimized a bit. I probably won't have time for this soon, I'm afraid.
Created attachment 454 Load icons at dialog size * Added a g_idle_add to launcher_set_size, so the icons are reloaded when the panel is resized. * Use xfce_panel_plugin_get_size to load icons at panel size. * Removed the 2 other g_idle's to prevent loading twice. Maybe this will help a bit
Ok, launcher icons should now be noticeably bigger. Systray is more difficult, not sure if I will find time to look at it before 4.4.
Icon sizes should be better. Systray is up to the programs creating the icons, so it can't be handled by the panel.

It's not a very high priority for me, but I certainly didn't forget.
