Panel icon size

ZorinFanBG

Hi, I'm thinking of installing Zorin on my parent's PC instead of Windows.
I think it's a great Linux distro.

I would like to edit the size of the panel icons and also of date/time little icons as well, because on 32' 4K monitor they're too tiny.

I played with

/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gnome-shell.css
/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/zorin.css
/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css

but after several hours I haven't found what settings to change.
I'd really need your help!

Thank you,
Matt

Hi and welcome,

To make the icons larger in the panel you go to Menu | Settings | Appearance | Zorin Appearance then go to Panel and then just click on the + button to increase the size of the panel which in turn increases the size of the icons within it.

As for the clock that is 'hard wired' you would need to add a separate clock I guess on the desktop.
