icewm clock font size

[Member rmcellig]

I would like to start off by thanking the developers of this new excellent distro. I had a lot of false starts with Antix over the years but now EVERYTHING is connecting with me and I LOVE it. The default desktop background is awesome!!

One thing I noticed is that the icewm config file (preferences) looks different than what I used to see. For some reason I can’t find where to change the font size of the clock in the panel. I looked through the preferences file and can’t seem to find it.

Look in ~.icewm/themes

Mine has a LED Clock folder. You will see when you open it.

Also. I find the icewm preferences file in antix control center > Desktop > edit icewm

Edit; Ooops. My bad. Early morning here. Not awake yet. I missed you cannot find how to change font size in preferences.

if i recall correctly, i changed the size of mine in antiX 17.4 by adjusting the font size in the default.theme file. i followed the advice in this thread to copy the theme from /usr/share/icewm/themes to ~/.icewm/themes and change its name to differentiate it from the original. it seems like there should probably be a way to set that across all icewm themes, but i couldn’t find it and this worked for me while i was working with default.theme to change other aspects of the taskbar.

edit: added name change to clarify.
