See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/attachment.cgi?id=282575

If we drag an editor and split the editor areas, the min/ max icon get tiny.

Do you see this on Linux or on Windows?

At least I see this on Windows, and when you hover with the mouse over the icons they become big (nowadays). I thinks this was by design.

Have a look at Bug 389833 and Bug 495230.

I don't think this is on purpose, most likely a limitation what the tab renderer can do.
Comment 3 Philippe Dul CLA 2020-04-28 11:01:10 EDT
Hi, 

I don't know why, but it was done on purpose years ago, 
in the CSS e4_basetyle and e4-dark_tabstyle:

#org-eclipse-ui-editorss {
   swt-tab-height: 8px;
}

Regards
Philippe

The height of this tab is reduced to stop wasting space in the screen, see Bug 495230. Fix that one, and then probably this one is fixed as well.

I think it would be better if the icon is displayed in the normal size in the last stack (right hand-side).
