Hi i've posted and read and been through metacity forums,
and still cant find a answer to slimming down the Gnome menu.
The only way i can get the list shorter (less wasted space between menu entries, going top downwards) is a certain GTK theme (LK OS-K Blue) but i dont care for the metallic theme.
i have spend 6 hours tonight tweaking .gtkrc files here and there, with varying results,
the spacing is really horrible and makes an otherwise good desktop look horrible.
the fonts are small, unused entries are hidden, resolution is 1600x900.
it can be done via a certain Metacity theme,
but x=thickness and y=thickness & Treeviews in gtkrc have either no effect,
or affect the wrong widgets, scrollbars,buttons or checkboxes. etc.
i have compared both themes gtkrc files side by side,too. no progress.
i have been chasing this UI 'feature' for months, but now i'm getting fed up.
anyone have any better / more detailed info ?
