This happened again. It's happened twice in the last two days. I actually saw it happen this time. I don't know if this is a coincidence or not, but it happened at exactly the same time a notification popped up saying there was a new e-mail. Thee icons are now sorted in alphabetical order in columns Last night (October 4 2023), I accidentally left my computer on overnight. This morning (October 5, 2023), when I turned on the monitor, I discovered all my icons were re-arranged in alphabetical order, with folders first. The icons were not locked this time, as this seems to happen whether they are locked or not....:-( Created attachment 162097 [details]

I can also confirm this bug, kde-plasma version 5.27.8. The options that affect my desktop icons are: - don't order - small icons - from left to right - aligned to the left They are NOT marked: - descending order - folders first - locked icons If I move the icons to any position, it is held until lunchtime, when I step away from the computer for about 40 minutes. When I return, I find the icons sorted in strict alphabetical order, aligned left to right, with no precedence for folders This is very annoying. Regards. Felice Murolo I can also confirm this bug. There is a problem with the Plasma desktop: icons are randomly scattered across the desktop. The desktop settings are set to "icons/arrange/top to bottom". After manually placing icons on the desktop, after 2...4 reboots/logins, the icons scatter across the desktop again. The only thing that helps is turning on the “icons / arrange / left to right” setting. KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.105.0 Qt Version: 5.15.7 Kernel Version: 6.4.16-desktop-3.mga9 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 620 Regards. Andy Hello, I can confirm that bug persists in version 5.27.9 too. It's pratically impossible to organize your desktop with this bug. There are multiple bugs describing the same or similar behavior for icon positioning on the desktop not being saved. I'm using 468546 as the main one. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 468546 *** |
