reducing spaces in menus

[benutzer74]

For my taste, there is way to much space in menus (e.g. context menus, right mouse, not toolbar menu) in the KvCurvesLight theme. I looked for everything with "spacing" in KvCurvesLight#.kvconfig and reduced it, but there´s still too much space in the menus. How can I now reduce space? Do I need to change the fonts, does the menu spaces depend on font size? Thanks!

All parameters are is explained in the documentation.

The height of a menu is calculated based on several factors, among which are menu_separator_height under [%General] and frame.top, frame.bottom, text.margin.top and text.margin.bottom under [MenuItem].

Many parameters aren't included in Kvantum Manager because changing them freely may ruin a theme but it's good to see their effects in the kvconfig file by trial and error.

EDIT: Use kvantumpreview in a terminal after each change to see its effect.

Thanks. With the many options it´s hard to keep overview ;-)

Yes, there are many parameters. Sometimes, I should read the documentation that I've written myself to find them.
