[solved] mx23 menu icons smaller

[kdeman]

The menu icons or buttons in the left side drop down favorites menu are too big. How do I make them smaller Is there a config file?
Still new at this after two years LOL

If need be, you can do this using the LiveUSB, thanks.



You have to be more clear than that.

Thunar left side?
Whisker menu?

I believe it's called the whisker menu. The one that drops down on the left when click the MX logo in upper left? Thanks

[Eadwine Rose]

Right click on the logo, then properties, first tab holds the icon size options.
