How to smallen the icons #113

I have installed Linux Mint 20 MATE, Xapp v1.8.10+ulyana, and as I have a small screen the icons on Xapp look too big.

I'm able to change the Panel's size, but not Xapp's. Is there any way to change this?

Menu > System Settings > Dashboard should be what you're looking for. But beware, a bizarre bug causes the panel's scale button to automatically "grab" the mouse scroll, so when scrolling the box up or down using scrolling, you can also change the scale without realizing it. First click on an empty spot in the box to unsnap. Below are options for configuring Xapp icons as a whole and other ambiguous size options for icons that never make it clear what they are. There is an additional problem: you can only resize the Xapp icons (the colored ones), this does not affect the Indicators (old icons, linked to X11, like Sound-Indicator, Network-Manager, Recents, Power, Notifications, Printers... There is no way to configure these separately, and they are not the same size as the others. It's one of Cinnamon's oldest bugs But the biggest problem right there is the ambiguity: there are different names for different types of icons ("Colorful" < apps and appliccations >, symbolic < what is it ? > and Indicators ) but there are no tags, examples or manual to tell you what it is... You have to pretty much set it up blind and then look at the result.
