How can I modify the icon size of the side main unity launcher?

Question

How can I modify the icon size of the side main unity panel on ubuntu 11.10? I've tried installing the compiz configuration (ccsm), but it doesn't work. Maybe I didnt installed compiz correctly. Thanks!

Solution 1

If you want to use CCSM you can find your answer here: How can I configure Unity?

The other option is to use gconf-editor (which you will have to install) and then go to:

apps > compiz-1 > plugins > unityshell > screen0 > options and looks for the 'icon_size' option. You can change it there as well using values from 32 - 64.

Solution 2

1. Open the Ubuntu Software Center
2. Search for compizconfig
3. You should see the CompizConfig Settings Manager, install it.
4. Press Alt+F2, type 'ccsm' and press Enter
5. Once you have started CompizConfig Settings Manager, go to the Desktop category and click the Ubuntu Unity Plugin.
6. Click the Experimental tab and change the value of 'Launcher icon size' setting.
