Applications Menu

This section is needed because the Applications Menu icon appears either smaller or larger than the other icons.  After some searching I came across the following solution:

1. Applications Menu > Settings > Panel
2. Add a new panel, place it in the bottom left corner and apply the following:  ("Row size" same as original panel)

2. In the "Appearance" tab change "Style" to Solid color and "Color" to #D0D0D0.
3. In the "Items" tab add "Applications Menu".
4. Goto the original panel (usually Panel 1)  and remove "Applications Menu" and add "Launcher".
5. Edit "Launcher" by adding a new empty item and apply the following:

  Name: Menu
  Command: xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu
  Icon: Select an icon (I chose "applications-other" from the "Menu Icons" drop down list).

6. Goto /home/linuxlite/.gtkrc-2.0:  (Press Ctrl+H to show hidden files)

Add (copy & paste) the following:

style "xfce-panel-window-style"
{
  # Size of autohide window in pixels
  XfcePanelWindow::autohide-size = 1
}
class "XfcePanelWindow" style "xfce-panel-window-style"



You'll now have an icon exactly the same size as the rest and when you click on it the Applications Menu will pop up.  (the new Panel you created will remain hidden).
