Hence, I've selected a relatively large base font (14 pt), and I've set the dpi settings to 160 dpi. And for some information which should be easily and quickly readable, I have to use much larger fonts (e.g. the time font in the datetime panel app is 28 pt).
However, the maximum row size for panels is limited to 128 pixel. This should suffice for horizontal panels, but it is definitely way too small for vertical panels:
- Window buttons would need several hundred pixels (400-500?) in width at that font and dpi size
- The panel is way too narrow for the datetime app, both for the time with seconds and for the date, and even for the time without seconds
- The icons in the workspace switcher are unrecognizably small
- For all the performance meters, the label (e.g. the network interface or disk name) does not fit.
- The CPU graph would also benefit from more width.
Please increase the limit e.g. to 512 pixel!https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/-/issues/393Cannot position actions button adjacent to Whiskers menu icon2022-05-10T17:59:36ZJim WardCannot position actions button adjacent to Whiskers menu iconFor starters, the environment is Xfce 4.14.2 under MX Linux 19.3.

In xfce4-panel, whether horizontal or vertical, I'm trying to have the Actions Button and the Whiskers Menu button adjacent -- over/under for horizontal panel, left/right for vertical panel, the way it does for launcher buttons and external plugins. I can't seem to find a way to make it happen. And yes, I know the commands are already IN the Whiskers menu, but that makes an additional mouse movement and an additional mouse click, and I'm lazy. :-)
I've tried moving both of the icons, and that does not work. An MX forum admin running Xfce 4.12 does not have this problem, he can move the above icons to adjacency.https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/-/issues/226Number of rows limit (6) is not enough2023-03-23T15:38:54ZBugzilla MigrationNumber of rows limit (6) is not enough## Submitted by sco..@..il.com

## Description
I dont see why the panel need to be restricted to a maximum of 6 rows in panel preferences.
If in horizontal mode i have 7 buttons from a plugin in line but then switch the panel to deskbar mode (vertical panel, horizontal plugin) the panel can not show the last button from the plugin because the panel is only allowed 6 rows so the last button is clipped.
And it seems the panel does not allow the overflowing button to wrap to the next line.
So i guess what i want is to change the panel size like i would change the size of a window.
Not indirectly by changing the number of rows or the row size inside the panel but just the panel size.
Perhaps it would be better to be able to select the width/height of the panel in % both ways.
It seems like currently you can select the length in % and the "width" indirectly by the row height.
