Panel overlapping icons
FYI, I made a mistake taking the 'Icons on wrong screen'. I meant to drag the main panel back to desktop 2 to show the icons do not follow it. Created attachment 13441 [details]

Sorry.. had an internal error page when I got home after trying to submit the first time.. disregard the first attachment. I've got a similar behaviour with my Xinerama setup with KDE 3.5 (RC2). My setup looks like this |-------------|------------| | | | | 1 | 2 | | | | | | | ---------------------------- On each screen, both at 1024x768, there are 2 panels. The main panel is on the bottom edge of screen 1. I now only can place icons on screen 1. When I try to move them to screen 2, they are dropped at the right edge of screen 1. When I place the main panel on screen 2, I can move icons freely around on both screens. I have a triple head configuration with several panels spread around the screen edges. If I disable "align icons to grid", all icons always end up at the right edge of Xinerama screen 1 (My rightmost screen.) after a re-login. If I enable "align to grid" the icons are always placed on the first screen and cannot be moved to the other screens at all, but at least they keep their relative location to each other... (Already reported as Bug #116341 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116341 and Bug #117550 http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117550) This renders desktop icons completely unusuable for me as it makes it impossible to conveniently use the desktop as a temporary storage between login sessions and to place usuable application icons onto it... :-( It's a clear regression compared to KDE 3.4.x which "just worked" in this respect. Kdesktop is no more mantained. Fortunatly this bug seems not to be valid for KDE 4. Please reopen if this bug is not a kdesktop one (and it is not solved) or it can be reproduced on KDE 4. Bug closed. Kdesktop is no more mantained. |
