Description Fernando M. Muniz 2024-10-13 18:43:38 UTC

Changing the scaling at the monitor settings causes the desktop files/folders to change their positions in situations in which they shouldn't because the organized area in the grid is smaller than the scaled area.

Ex: You make an small heart-shaped form with files and folders, then increase or even decrease the scaling, and the files/folders will still change places.

The desktop should keep its organization of the grid until it's no longer possible due to extreme scaling.
