The desktop panel is located above, covering the desktop icons (the icons should be on the side of the panel, not below). The bug occurs only if: - The desktop panel is set to the right of the screen. - The desktop has the "Folder View" layout and the icons are aligned to the right. The bug does not occurs if the panel is up, down or left the screen, or the icons are aligned to the left of the desktop. The bug appeared in Plasma 5.9.1 (before it did not happen).
Created attachment 104289 [details] Desktop icons and panel, aligned to the left and right of the screen. When the desktop icons are aligned to the right of the screen, the panel covers them. If the icons are aligned to the left, they are displayed correctly next to the panel.
I think Eike mentioned a bug in GridView which causes this, when icons are right-aligned and (important) aligned in columns. Otherwise it works.
Seems this is intentional... // Don't apply the right margin if the folderView is in column mode and not overflowing. // In this way, the last column remains droppable even if a small part of the icon is behind a panel. rightMargin: folderViewLayer.ready && (folderViewLayer.view.overflowing || folderViewLayer.view.flow == GridView.FlowLeftToRight) && (isContainment && plasmoid.availableScreenRect) && parent ? parent.width - (plasmoid.availableScreenRect.x + plasmoid.availableScreenRect.width) : 0
