I think this item is not a "low" priority bug. I've switched to XFCE because of this.
Majority of users saves things on desktop (firefox's default download folder) and it is very annoying to see my dekstop messed up a lot of times because I save images and the icons got stretched automatically. I even found my USB drive hidding under my CD-ROM some times. Isn't there an option to deactivate icon stretching and activating something like "gnome-desktop-boxing" (to act same as XFCE does) option? I want to see the right icons of my desktop aligned with the left icons but not one next to the other. And I don't want to see diferent icons sizes. I save things in desktop on-the-go and have no time to keep alligning and reorganizing my desktop. What's the advantage of having a "cute desktop" with "a lot of options" if you lose usability? In my opinion, usability must come before cosmetic purposes. I wan't a simple and working desktop and do not want icons stretching until it can allign correctly. At least make it an option. -- 'keep aligned' does not work right https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12608 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
