Icon size for alt-tab windows cycling/taskbar

[Phil Bardanes]

Hi.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm using 3.2 under all 3 OSes that I
mentioned. I'll look into upgrading the two that you mentioned, but the
Mandrake will have to stay at 3.2 for awhile 

Under 3.2, how does one increase the icon sizes on  the Start/Taskbar
menu?

Is it possible to configure the 3.3 alt-tab window to be oriented from
left-to-right?
