[Bug 467997] Re: Gnome add to panel add (custom) Menu Bar | icon size is too big!
I encountered this issue and found this bug searching for a solution. I have just upgraded from 8.10 Intrepid to 9.04 Jaunty then to 9.10 Karmic. I didn't notice if this issue was present on Jaunty, but it definitely is on Karmic. After a bunch of trial and error, I have a workaround of three short and simple commands: sudo mv /usr/share/icons/Tangerine/icon-theme.cache /usr/share/icons/Tangerine/icon-theme.cache.1 sudo mv /usr/share/icons/Tangerine/32x32/places/start-here.png /usr/share/icons/Tangerine/32x32/places/start-here.png.1 killall gnome-panel You might get a file not found error if the file icon-theme.cache doesn't exist, this is fine, but you probably won't. Sudo is only needed for the first two. My testing consisted of copying everything from /usr/share/icons/Tangerine into another folder in /usr/share/icons, selecting that icon theme, then deleting the *start-here* files (as in find /usr/share/icons/Tangerine -iname *start-here*) and running killall gnome-panel after each delete to see if it did anything. You can actually remove all of the *start-here* files and somehow still have those icons present in the Menu Bar (A custom menu bar) applet but they'll not be in the Main Menu (The main GNOME menu) applet; the only file that changes anything is the 32x32 png one. The issue is definitely around that file. If other themes are having this issue, perhaps this solution could work for them too.

I had the same problem. It cost me half an hour to get to find out it was this bug and I had to change the icon set.

Attached is a Screen Capture showing the enlarged icon size. Note that the notification Wireless Network Connection and the Notification Applet are the CORRECT size. All of the other icons are too large. ** Attachment added: Karmic-Gnome-Panel_Icons-too-large.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34841446/Karmic-Gnome-Panel_Icons-too-large.png -- Gnome add to panel add (custom) Menu Bar | icon size is too big! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/467997 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For comparison, this is what the panel looks like if I remove the offending Menu Bar. The icons are shown at the correct height of 24 pixels. ** Attachment added: Karmic-Gnome-Panel_normal-icon-size.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34841676/Karmic-Gnome-Panel_normal-icon-size.png -- Gnome add to panel add (custom) Menu Bar | icon size is too big! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/467997 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Just out of curiosity... do you get the same behavior if you use a different theme?

[Bug 467997] Re: Gnome add to panel add (custom) Menu Bar | icon size is too big!
You have good intuition. The problem is with the Icons. My custom theme was using the Tangerine icons; selecting any of the other Icons (Human, Humanity, etc.) results in the correct appearance. Are the Tangerine icons outdated or no longer supported, or do I need to reinstall from another source? apt-cache policy tangerine-icon-theme tangerine-icon-theme: Installed: 0.27 Candidate: 0.27 Version table: *** 0.27 0 500 http://debian.nctu.edu.tw karmic/universe Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status -- Gnome add to panel add (custom) Menu Bar | icon size is too big! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/467997 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
