Last session I did an update and changed the theme. That's it. Oh, and checked Google+, but I don't think that could cause this:

As you can see, the left side of my panel is fine, but the right hand side has resized all my icons and made some disappear off the screen!

Any ideas / help?

Ta

Oh, and I tried changing the theme back. No change. I also tried rebooting.

I downloaded a wallpaper for "Dumb ways to die", but it didn't have the psycho killer (bottom right).

Screenshot + original wallpaper + GIMP = Win.

I'll post a link to it as full size as I can when I'm next on that PC (I'm on windows box atm). Sad

Looks like it's a known bug in Cinnamon...

There was a fix included in the post. In case anyone else has this issue, I did this:

Go to Cinnamon Settings > Panel
Check the boxes:
"Use customized panel size (otherwise it's defined by the theme)" and
"Allow Cinnamon to scale panel text and icons according to the panel heights"
