shrinking top pane of axis on low res monitor

I just updated to newest version from wheezy. Looks like now the active gcodes has been moved out of the mdi tab view  , but now contributing to top pane height increase? The result is axis hangs below the bottom of the screen.

 

Could someone give me a hint as to what command would let me reduce the height of the top pane?
I am able to increase its height using the .axisrc file by using but it seems something inside stops its height from being reduced any further and this has no effect
For now I am going to scale my resolution until I have more time to look through the code.

Try this:
You may also need to play with these for the bottom pane:

yeah there are a few things you need to adjust, i dont remember it being as simple as just changing pane.top

dont remember exactly what I did, but you can refer to my 2 other files to play with, i did these specifically for small screens

edit, ok i went back to double check, because i remember it took me a long time to bruteforce the winning combo

i think .pane configures its min height for all the widgets, then hides them after, because just trying to change the height never worked

That did the trick, I am up and running. Not sure I would've ever figured that out.
