Description Hans-Peter Jansen 2005-09-13 21:39:28 UTC

After adding a few icons below the default generated ones on the left, 
changing the desktop font and relogin to KDE, I found some icons moved to the 
topmost/leftmost position. This happened at least 3 times here and is quite 
annoying.

did you change the desktop font each time or just once and since then the 
icons move around?

Comment 2 Stephan Kulow 2005-09-14 07:34:18 UTC

kdesktop moving around icons is one of the longest standing bugs on 
bugs.kde.org - and I doubt we will fix it before KDE4 hits the streets. This 
code is just horrible as it tries to do too many things at once.

Comment 3 Hans-Peter Jansen 2005-11-20 21:38:38 UTC

Understood (I took a look once, and was quite annoyed by being unable to locate a grip on it..)

@Dirk: just once, and the movement of icons can be work arounded by toggling the adjust at grid (?) option (and keeping it enabled) after moving/adding icons to the desktop..

Comment 4 Stephan Kulow 2006-01-31 11:34:44 UTC

ok, we can't fix that desktop icons moving bug for KDE3 - but I will play around with making "align to grid" default. Also to fix #146463
