Description firewalker 2012-11-19 09:31:12 UTC
On "Folder View" desktop mode when Align to Grid is selected a lot of space can't be used to place icons. On the image bellow you can't place any icon under the red line.

The issue is old (as I discovered from older threads in various forums). But i hadn't noticed it because I wasn't using "Folder View" mode. There seems to be be some threads (without solution) for the icons grid spacing.

As I can understand the fixed (?) icon spacing doesn't allow an extra line of icons on the unused space.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select Folder View mode for the Desktop.
2. Enable Align to grid.
Actual Results:  
There is a big part of the Desktop (bottom) that you can't place icons.

Expected Results:  
You should be able to place icons there.

Hello!

This bug report was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this bug has already been resolved in Plasma 5.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described  here is still present in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!

Nate Graham
