Small icons in System Tray

Hello,
I would like to have small icons in System Tray and have them in two lines, because when there is a lot of them, it take a lot space on the kicker, and I couldn't find an option to manage the problem.
Anyone has an idea ?

And anyone has an idea how to attach file when posting?

I have an answer and i also made a screenshot how to do it but i found that i cant attach my shots in a replay.
Anyway, the only solution for having 2 (or more) lines in systray is to set the height to be larger.
In the predefined sizes only
Panel Menu > Size > Large
works, but you could also choose: Panel Menu > Size > Custom and then 52 px is the minimal height that makes 2 lines in systray.
I personally don't like the very big K and other icons of panel (they could occupy more space then you gain by making systray icons in 2 lines), so i use the Small size only.

yes but with 52 px, I think that the kicker is too big, I would have preffer to find a way to reduce the size of icons.

The SystemTray icon size is hardcoded to 24x24 in the system tray class of kdelibs (KSystemTray)

You could file a which item at bugs.kde.org if ou think that should be configurable.
