But one thing I noticed: Set Icons to "Align to Grid" via RMB on the Desktop. All Icons placed on screen 2 (or maybe aother screens if one has more than two screens) are moved to screen 1 and its not possible to move them to screen 2 then until I disable "Align to grid" again. Cheers -Marc 390903 1 kevinastone 2005-11-17 18:56:53 +0000 I've also experienced this running KDE 3.5.0 RC1 on gentoo. My desktop icons were all on screen 2, but when I loaded up a newly installed kde 3.5, it moved them all over to screen 1 and wouldn't let me drag them back until I unchecked align to grid. This wasn't a problem in kde 3.4. 393967 2 openpub 2005-11-29 22:30:54 +0000 I can confirm this bug, It's also present in the current SuSE RPMs for KDE 3.5.0 (i.e. kdebase3-3.5.0-16). Also enabling/disabling align to grid sometimes changes the icon arrangement and/or the line wrapping of the icon text. 394361 3 bcmilco 2005-12-01 04:28:45 +0000 I've experienced this too, in KDE 3.5.0 RC1 (and KDE 3.5.0 Final) for Gentoo. Very annoying in an otherwise excellent product, especially since it worked in 3.4.3 394378 4 mzenke 2005-12-01 07:08:43 +0000 I can confirm this bug. I was uusing kde 3.4.3 with my Desktop-Icons placed on the second Screen. After upgrading to kde 3.5.0 my Icons moved to the first screen. If I uncheck align to grid then I can move the icons back on screen 2, but afer a relogin the icons move back on screen 1 394875 5 eros 2005-12-02 14:34:25 +0000 Exactly the same here. Using the Kubuntu packages, KDE 3.5.0. Upgraded from 3.4.3 where everything was fine. 395096 6 milkman 2005-12-03 00:30:13 +0000 I have found the same problem. I also have found another problem that seems to be caused by "Align to Grid", #117550 (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117550). 395184 7 plesho 2005-12-03 11:38:18 +0000 I can also confirm that bug - Gentoo with KDE 3.5.0 final. 396324 8 dinojerm 2005-12-07 05:56:21 +0000 Confirmed (in 3.5.0 Alioth debian packages). The "align to grid" option overrides the "lock in place" option. When "align to grid" is disabled in my setup, icons do maintain their positions on screen 2 after relogging in, whether or not "lock in place" is enabled 397241 9 ascay 2005-12-10 14:36:03 +0000 *** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** 397460 10 mails.bugs.kde.org-2025-1 2005-12-11 12:37:58 +0000 Ok, confirmed (surprise, surprise...) using experimental KDE 3.5 packages for Debian SID. This bug was not present in KDE 3.4.3 I had installed before. Disabling the "align icons to grid" works around this bug so I'm at least able to put the icons back to different monitors, tough not automatically aligned, of course... :-/ 410860 11 mzenke 2006-02-02 13:05:13 +0000 This bug is still "included" in KDE 3.5.1 (Used Gentoo ebuilds) 410861 12 eros 2006-02-02 13:06:58 +0000 The same for the (K)ubuntu packages. 411808 13 johannes 2006-02-05 18:23:16 +0000 I can also confirm this bug - unsupported KDE 3.5.0-29 package for SuSE 10.0. I am also using xinerama with 2 monitors - same behaviour... 412664 14 polet82 2006-02-09 00:23:16 +0000 Same thing. Mandriva 2006, KDE 3.5.1 from thac&ze rpms. 1024x768 (screen2, left) 1600x1200 (screen1, right) icons can't be moved to the screen2 while "Align to Grid" selected. If not selected icons can be moved, but after KDE restarts they are moved to screen1 and icons in screen1 shifted to the right also. Seems like it scales 2624 width of 2 screens to 1600 of screen1 and place icons accordingly. 413596 15 14661 johannes 2006-02-12 19:59:46 +0000 Created attachment 14661 This file should be called by autostart Okay - after playing some time with the dcop routines from kdesktop and watching the source code from kdesktop and kicker I was able to write a workaround for this bug. This bug seems to be caused by a wrong desktop geometry that kicker gives to kdesktop by the dcop call "desktopIconsAreaChanged". Now my knowledge in C and the kde-source code is not sufficient to provide a patch, so I wrote a simple bash script which gets the actual (correct) desktop geometry from kwin, and sets it by using the same dcop call "desktopIconsAreaChanged" from kdesktop KDesktopIface. Add this script to autostart to call it on every system boot. 417972 16 Rudolf.Kollien 2006-02-28 11:30:12 +0000 Can confirm this bug for SuSE RPMs for 9.3 KDE 3.5.1 Level "a". It's very galling, as i use the second (mostly "window empty" screen) for the fast access to many apps via desktop icons placed there. 431070 17 mzenke 2006-04-15 00:21:20 +0000 Bug is still present in KDE 3.5.2 (Gentoo Portage) 446037 18 mzenke 2006-06-12 17:16:10 +0000 and still in 3.5.3... 449070 19 faure 2006-06-23 10:53:57 +0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 122001 *** 453176 20 mzenke 2006-07-12 14:30:35 +0000 With the patch from 122001 Icons still move to Xinerama Screen 1 when KDE starts. 377655 21 ash211 2006-08-05 02:56:21 +0000 Still experiencing this bug in Kubuntu, 3.5.4 458601 22 X_X_L 2006-08-07 10:29:11 +0000 I can confirm that this bug is _NOT RESOLVED_ in 3.5.4.
