The icon size /can/ be changed by the GTK+ Theme. Although I don't
remember seeing any that does this -- with the exception of "Large
Print", which enlarges the icons.

So yes, this can be done using the theme. But this most likely would
require you to hack up a custom theme. ;)  No, there is no "hidden"
setting that I am aware of.


There definitely is not a special Evolution setting anywhere for this.
Evolution uses the default GNOME settings (GTK+ Theme in particular)
here.

A hint that might solve the issue for you: Use "text beside icons"
rather than "text below icons". See the "Menu and Toolbar Preferences"
in GNOME Control Center. Or just run the 'gnome-ui-properties' app.

"Text beside icons" saves a great amount of screen real-estate, and I
definitely prefer this setting. HTH
