Menu icons size

Hi all! I've been looking for the solution to this doubt for some days but there's nothing to do, so I try here too.
Is it possible to change menu icons size? I mean, I know it is somehow possible 'couse I did it, but I don't know how to re-do it.
When I first installed KDE I was shown a config window with some graphics options. There were some option buttons, and one of them regarded the large size of the icons in the menus. After some time I changed the theme selectin one in the control center, and the settings were changed. Now, I found the icons smaller than those I used to have before. No one knows how to change their size, except only for those in the K menu. Do someone know what I'm talking about?
Thanks for any advice.

Edit your /home/$USERNAME$/.kde/share/config/kickerrc.
(you need to enable "Show Hidden Files" first)

Scroll down to the menu section of kickerrc and find MenuEntryHeight= and change the value to the size you want (16 is good), then save the changes and restart KDE.

Or, alternatively (if you don't want to restart KDE), you can just restart kicker itself by opening Konsole and entering:

dcop kicker Panel restart

Now go fix them icons!!!

I've already tried that, but the problem is that that way I only change the size of the K menu (let's say the 'start' button). I would like to change the size of the menu entries of all the menus, every menu of kde. I know it is possible because I did it through the starting conifg of kde, but now? Thanks anyway.

Sorry about that. I misunderstood your post. I'll investigate and get back to you if I find the solution.

No problems. Thank anyway for the answer. I've already searched with google very much but found nothing. Don't know why. It is very strange. If you find something, let me know please, thanks.

RE: Menu icons size

Which menu? You're talking about every menu, or only the K menu? If you're talking about the K menu only, than you can follow the instructions written above.
