Bug#425556: gnome-panel: Panel launcher icons no longer scale properly

[Wim De Smet]

Package: gnome-panel
Version: 2.18.1-1+b1
Severity: normal

Hi,

Previous versions of gnome-panel used to scale all the icons so they
would fit the size of the panel. The newest version only scales in
steps, i.e. 16x16 - 32x32 ... For anyone who makes his panel smaller
than 32 across you'll get decidedly tiny icons. I have a smaller screen
and I've grown accustomed to scaling the panel down a bit to get some
more screen real estate, but with this new change they've become
unpleasantly small. If possible, I'd like the old behaviour back.

Wim
