What happened?

The size of the icons on the left (inside the drawer) are noticeably larger than the icons on the right (not inside the drawer). When I go into Panel Settings to change the size of the icons in this part of the panel (right side), the size of all icons change, but the icons in the drawer are always larger.

My expectation is that all the icons (in the drawer or not) are the same size.

By the way, I'm too new to using Linux Mint to know for sure about the graphics driver in use - I assume it's the basic one that covers older Intel CPUs with built-in graphics. CPU-X reports driver i915, for the model "Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller".

The developer has had no Github activity since 2018. Sadly, it seems unlikely we'll see any fixes for this applet any time soon :-(
