Hello Gauvain,

Yes, it appears that nothing has changed with relation to this visual problem.

Once you reduce the panel to 26 the vertical size will not decrease any further (visually) whilst the clock is shown. The panel adjustment allows for a size as small as 16 pixels, but it seems of no use so long as at least one of several (problem) applets are in use.

Other applets which cause similar problems are:

System load monitor
Battery monitor

Mostly the icons and applets used on the panel scale really well and don't lose their proportions with relation to each other, there are a few however (such as those above) which don't play nice and either don't scale well, or don't scale at all.

This 'bug' report is probably better classified as a 'wish report' because nothing I am reporting is truly broken just looks 'strange'.

Cheers,
Craig
