After setting &quot;Align to Grid&quot; from the menu, new icons placed on the desktop often move other icons to the side or down.  I ran a series of tests from a term touching test files onto the desktop, I recorded 16 touches in http://www.web-milk.co.uk/icon_placement.txt  I generated files test1 - test16, the numbers on the above text file represent each of the files and their position after each touch.

I also used a loop to generate 60 test$x files and they grouped themselves in the top left corner in no obvious pattern.  I turned off &quot;Align to Grid&quot; and re-ran the loop (after deleting the test files) and they (correctly) positioned themselves from left to right (wrapping at the right edge) across both screens.

I find Align to Grid useful and I hope this can be resolved soon!</thetext>

    <thetext>I can confirm this bug. Since the upgrade from 3.4.3 to 3.5 I cannot place icons on the secondary screen of my xinerama setup anymore when having &quot;Align to grid&quot; enabled.</thetext>

    <thetext>This is NOT a duplicate of 122001. &quot;Align to grid&quot; not working at all and &quot;Align to grid&quot; forcing icons onto the first xinerama-screen are two completely different problems!</thetext>
