Description Waqar Ahmed 2021-12-19 14:40:01 UTC

I use Icons View Mode so every time I open dolphin or go into a new folder, the icons will jump and rearrange themselves. This is sometimes bearable but other times it happens when I am already trying to select something and the sudden rearrangement causes the selection to go away

OBSERVED RESULT

Icons reorder

EXPECTED RESULT
Icons stay where they are. Any sorting should already be done when the view opens
