A

• add custom positioning functionality
  - Top left/center/right
  - Center left/right (vertical direction only, see DxO)
  - Bottom left/center/right

• add functionality to change icons Size
  - in %, easier, but quality will decrease due to interpolation OR
  - in pixels, and add more sizes

• add setting to change Spacing between icons

• (optional) app Preset functionality
  to save/load custom layouts

B

Y-E-S-S-S! I would like it very much.
The idea of ​​the spacing between the icons and above all their size is interesting.

The same options would be needed for full screen too!

added Suggestion B, C

"B" is a good idea, but with customizable background color.
I don't like the vertical "C" icons, but that depends on personal preference, monitor size, etc.
