what does actually happens? i see the settings menu working correctly here, i don't understand the issue

This is a part of the oxygen theme (the panel fading), nothing to do with the shelf applet.
Comment 3 Paul Elliott 2010-12-15 00:24:20 UTC
It looks like the bottom half of the menu is missing.

This is what other people see:

Compare with attachment above.

I really want to change the icon that my shelf is visible as, but that
part of the menu seems to be is missing.

It looks like the menu terminated abnormally.

I really want to change the Icon displayed externally.

Is there any way to do that?

Where is the info associated with the drawer settings stored internally
is there any way I can change the Icon with an editor?

The icon chooser (in 4.6) is only displayed when the shelf is in a panel (in iconified state).

Due to some changes in plasma, in 4.5 (and possibly 4.4) it wasn't available.

Externally?
