Bug#865734: mate-panel: Spacing between icons increases when increasing vertical panel width

[erik]

Package: mate-panel
Version: 1.16.2-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,


   * What led up to the situation?

Using a vertical panel with icons (program starters), the spacing between the icons gets larger when the width of the panel is increased. I used ta have a lot of icons on my vertical panel, but now they don't fit anymore.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I expected to be able to increase the width of the vertical panel, without affecting the spacing between icons.
