Hi, I hope you can help me, I really like the KDE Plasma desktop environment, the only thing that I don't like (I don't know if it's a bug or a feature) is that the automatic sorting of icons on the desktop doesn't stay set. Every time I create a new file even if I previously set the automatic sorting of icons, the file doesn't come in order under the other icons, but I have to reset the automatic sorting with the right mouse button. This is very annoying for me and it doesn't matter if I use the KDE Plasma desktop environment, which I find really nice. Do you know how to solve this problem? Thanks.

I do: upgrade to Plasma 6.3.6 or Plasma 6.4 in a few weeks, where we fixed this. :)
