Is there a way to allocate additional horizontal space on the Task Bar for use by the System Tray so that icons are not hidden behind the “<” symbol? My objective is to allow an increased number of application icons to be visible nearby the clock on the far right side of the Task Bar.

Thank you for your assistance.
