On current git master, I can't reproduce this issue as shown, even when changing the alignment and arrangement settings to match yours. Does this issue reproduce in a new clean user account on the same machine? > Does this issue reproduce in a new clean user account on the same machine?
No, can't reproduce on a freshly created user account on the same machine.
This installation and account running plasma is roughly 4.5 years old - just to give a timeframe of config cruft that may have accumulated somewhere. It does sound like there's some cruft here. If you can figure out which custom settings of the desktop are causing it, that would be really helpful. Created attachment 181899 [details]
Example 2
OK, some findings: I boiled my whole "plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc" down to
```
[Containments][825]
activityId=0914d988-a9ca-4bd0-9770-57477b870f6e
plugin=org.kde.plasma.folder
[Containments][825][General]
url=file:///mnt/sieziHome/Desktop
```
With activityId present the issue occurs, without it it's fine. In the attached video we have three monitors (left, top-right, bottom-right).
What I do in the video:
- With activityId present there are desktop item on two monitors (left, top-right). That seems suspicious?
- Dropping an item on left monitor immediately spawns new icons. Dropping items on the top-right monitor works as expected.
- Removing activityId only produces icons on the top-right monitor (which is also the monitor a new test user picks up as monitor to present the panels - even if isn't the primary one, but that's probably a different bug report).
- Dropping items on that monitor works again as expected
This is on the beta 2 now.

Scratch that, I had a brain-f*art, that's a different issue. - Without activityId it's only on the *left* monitor and working as expected..
bug 505249 seems really similar and was just fixed. Can you try with that patch and see if you can still reproduce it? Can't reproduce on 6.4 release, was probably a dup. Closing. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 505249 *** |
Created attachment 181773 [details] example video of issue SUMMARY Dropping (adding) an item to the Desktop when sorted shows items on the desktop multiple times. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set the desktop to "Folder view" 2. Put some items on the desktop so it isn't empty 3. Change the sort order for desktop items to something else than "Unsorted" 4. Drag an additional item on the desktop OBSERVED RESULT Items on the desktop are shown multiple times now instead of once. EXPECTED RESULT Every item on the desktop should only be shown once.
