Changing window button icon size on xfce4-panel

[[o_0] Rob]

I'm trying to increase the size of Window Button icons in xfce 4.8's panel.

I tried adding the following to ~/.gtkrc-2.0:



style "xfce-tasklist-style"
{
XfceTasklist::max-button-size = 70
}
class "XfceTasklist" style "xfce-tasklist-style"


This only seems to work when "Show Button Labels" setting is not selected. When the window buttons have text, the icons go back to being small. Is there a way increase the icon size when the window buttons have text labels?

they adjust when you adjust the panel size:

right-click the panel >> panel >> panel preferences >> the size is somewhere on one of those tabs

Thanks black veils. That doesn't seem to change the size of the icons though.

This is what I'm trying to do:

I'm trying to do this as well. Furthest I came was this ominous line in the xfce documentation:

You can set a custom icon size in gtk-icon-sizes with the name panel-tasklist-menu. The default icon size is 16px.
http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/tasklist

I tried to do this by changing


<property name="IconSizes" type="empty" />
to

<property name="IconSizes" type="string" value="gtk-menu=32,32:gtk-button=32,32:panel-applications-menu=32,32:panel-directory-menu=32,32:panel-tasklist-menu=32,32"/>

in

~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xsettings.xml

Effectively changing the size of most of the icons except those in my panel... :(

Hope you find out how to do this,not only for your sake, but it bugs me also. Even tried editing my themes gtkrc file.

gtk-icon-sizes = "gtk-large-toolbar=16,16: gtk-small-toolbar=16,16: panel-menu=16,16: gtk-button=16,16" # This enables "compact-mode".

Tried changing the first numbers from 16,16 to 32,32. Saved the file & rebooted, Same thing, tiny icons still. Even commented the line out. Same thing! Durn it. ;)

I didn't try the gtkrc in my theme until now. If something should work, I figure it would be:

gtk-icon-sizes = "panel-tasklist-menu=32,32"
But of course this didn't work as well. I also tried to add this to ~/gtkrc-2.0 with no success. I believe this could be a bug.
I opened a questing on askubuntu (http://askubuntu.com/questions/233200/how-to-increase-icon-size-of-xfce4-panel-window-buttons-panel-tasklist-menu) and will wait if someone there can help. If this fails as well I will contact the author of the tasklist-widget. :I
