How to reduce entry list row height?

The entry lists (in areas) are 50% vertical whitespace. How do I reduce this and make it more compact?

The content list uses XenForo's style property called 'primaryContent'.

You can edit the vw_content_list.css template and use a smaller padding value than what primaryContent defines for your style (add your custom value outside the @primaryContent block, otherwise the change will apply everywhere in XenForo that uses the class).

You may also want to edit vw_icon.css and reduce the 36px size of .vw-status-icon:before

Looking at it now, I think the icon sizes should use style properties. Unfortunately I don't think there is enough time left to squeeze a change like that into 4.0.9.

I did not mention that this was for vb3.

But yes, for XF it needs style properties.

Its not clear to me what to change. I see various values with more than 1em.
It should use the same row height and font size as thread listings. But now everything is much bigger than in the default style.
