Created attachment 146087 [details]
vertical taskbar on the left

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
0. Have a vertical taskbar (on the left in my case)
1. Use the GUI for the tray settings to enable this setting (what i did)
OR
1. Set scaleIconsToFit=true in  ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc (didn't try it this way)

OBSERVED RESULT
See picture, Huge try icons

Comment 1 Lukas Ba. 2022-01-30 23:38:49 UTC
The iconSize setting was removed as of Plasma version 5.21.4 (perhaps slightly earlier).
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2022-02-01 22:45:50 UTC
That's the point of this setting. If you don't want huge icons when you have a huge panel, don't use this setting. :)

I'm afraid we won't be able to accommodate that, sorry.
