Task Bar: Icons are hidden
Posted: Fri Oct 26, 2018 7:21 am
Good Morning,
this is my first post, so let me just say that I use LXDE on several installations. In the past I've always used KDE, but this Desktop has become so annoying and buggy that I completely moved to LXDE a few years ago.
But nothing is perfect and I even found a bug in LXDE.
Or is it by design? Then this post is a change request!
If the task bar runs out of space, new application icons are hidden. In the following screenshot you see the last visible icon marked by an arrow:
All applications opened afterwards are not visible. You need to change the icon size of lxpanel or move it to another desktop to make it visible again.
It would be nice if you had the option to scroll down the icons or automatically make them smaller or whatever method to "not lose" any icon.
Thanks,
SH
