:-) so - as I say; the DPI is a constant of 75 across the Linux
desktop, so this is not a switch but a hard coded setting :-)
I am still convinced that large icons, on a reasonably sized screen
give a -far- more useful view of the metaphore for a beginner user. As I
say, advanced users can make it smaller.

Well; looking at gedit - it is using gtktoolbar.c's:
#define DEFAULT_ICON_SIZE GTK_ICON_SIZE_LARGE_TOOLBAR
ie. the same size (large) icons that we are using here. Perhaps the
size setting is coming from the theme, in which case we should extract
it and use exactly that setting in LibreOffice - can you have a dig ?
(can you check that stock gtk+ apps do indeed have small toolbar
icons ?).
Thanks,
Michael.
