Bottom panel minimum height

When Linux users want to recreate the original classic Windows style the best option is to use Q4OS with XPQ4
Q4OS can make the surface look like it roughly 90% accurately.

However there is one thing in particular that really stands out.
That is the taskbar, particularly the height of the panel

In classic windows the panel height is 28 pixel, while the minimum allowed height in Trinity is 30 pixel.
Yes, those 2 pixels matter.

Also, in the panel configuration we can modify the height. The smallest value here is "Tiny" or 24 pixel.
This size set in the settings does not mirror the actual size of the panel.

Could you please set the minimum panel height lower?
Even if just 2 pixels lower.

Re: Bottom panel minimum height

Also, do you use Trinity DE as is or do you modify it for Q4OS?
If I contribute to Trinity DE and my change is merged, will I see it in Q4OS eventually?

Yes, you are most welcome to contribute to the Trinity desktop. Q4OS uses original Trinity code and adds a few utilities, so your contribution will be included in the next major Q4OS release.
