--- Comment #9 from William <wi11ia...@pm.me> --- by playing around with the desktop folderview settings i made following revelation: the bug happens only when sort mode "left to right" is active (which is the default) and not when "top to bottom" is selected. This sounds weird but settings are confusing and icons are not sorted after anything (set to "manual") so why does a sort order have any impact when it should never apply.. "locking" the icons has also no effect other than that you cant fix them manually after they get scrambled all the other possible settings also dont affect it. tested on fresh install - simply switching the sort order fixes it - then you can sort your items manually once and they actually stay. Why not simply remove all the auto sorting stuff that noone uses anyway when it seems to mess with user preffered positions this much... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
