In the Mate GUI (Linux Mint), my icons by the time are only given half the space of the entire panel / task bar. It really looks like that division of the panel is meant to be much smaller.
Obviously, they don't need all that space. The open program tabs do, however, and they are left with only half the space, on the left.
There is a little gray divider line (three tiny gray dashes). How can I drag it or otherwise unlock/move it?
I haven't used MATE or gnome 2 in a while, but doesn't right-clicking some place (try a few different areas) on the panel bring up some options? – Xen2050 – 2015-02-06T09:39:02.950
@Xen2050 there are options in the right-click menus, but none I can see for this. – Jordan Morris – 2015-02-06T09:49:54.080
Hmmm, I'm on XFCE now and most have a "Move" option right there, also a main list of panel items that can be edited/moved/deleted... Maybe there's a main "Settings" somewhere in Mate too? Searched the programs menu for anything like "Settings", "Mate", "Desktop", "Panel", etc? – Xen2050 – 2015-02-06T10:05:48.807
