Applet icon in "Show Desktop" all the time is stretched
Hello! Does anyone know why the applet "Show Desktop" all the time is stretched? This can be fixed some way?

Re: Applet icon in "Show Desktop" all the time is stretched
It does not help
I realized what the problem
The problem is that the applet "Show Desktop" uses image format SVG. On the other icon theme this problem is not observed, so the problem is in icons Mint-X, which has some of the images in a format SVG.
The path to the image, which uses an applet:
/usr/share/icons/Mint-X/places/16/user-desktop.SVG
You just need to open the image in GIMP and save it in the format of PNG.
Image should be saved as "user-desktop.png", and the old image, "user-desktop.svg", which stretches to remove.
Do not forget to link to the image of "user-desktop.png", with the name "desktop.png".
After the link with the name "desktop.png" has been created, you can delete the old link "desktop.svg".

You have other problems there. Your scrollbars don't work. I've clicked and dragged for an hour and they will not budge.Vamint wrote:

Strange. I installed Firefox Nightly using apt-get install and the icon in the applet again stretched 
In Linux Mint 13, I also encountered this problem, but in the 14th version is not fixed.
