For my working VM, after ditching the sluggish Ubuntu 22 for the crazy good Mint Cinnamon 21, one of the customizations I wanted to make was the maximum width of the taskbar buttons. They seemed to narrow, while a lot of room was available.
After a couple minutes of searching, I found a direction in the Mint forums. The proposed solution is for Mint 20 – for Mint 21, it has a minor difference.
Edit, as root, the following file:
/usr/share/cinnamon/applets/grouped-window-list@cinnamon.org/constants.js
The value we’re after is MAX_BUTTON_WIDTH, which I increased from 150 to 210.
What caught my attention, though, is how all the layout building stuff is JavaScript.
