[Feature] Menu bar icon uses too much horizontal space #411

What's the problem?

Hi, thank you for developing WhatCable.

I noticed that the WhatCable menu bar item takes up quite a lot of horizontal space on macOS.

As shown in the attached screenshot, the app displays:

  • Power adapter icon
  • Charging wattage, such as “86W”
  • A relatively large amount of spacing between the elements

On MacBooks with many menu bar apps, this occupies valuable menu bar space.

Would it be possible to add a more compact display option, for example:

  1. Reduce the spacing between the icon and wattage
  2. Use a smaller or narrower charging icon
  3. Allow users to hide the icon and display only “86W”
  4. Allow users to hide the wattage and display only the icon
  5. Add a “Compact menu bar mode”

Environment:

  • WhatCable version: [填入你的版本]
  • Device: MacBook Pro

Thank you!
