(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kdesktop Version: KDE 3.0.0 Severity: normal Installed from: RedHat RPMs Compiler: Not Specified OS: Linux OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified If I select a column of icons and click the topmost icon in the column and drag it so that the bottom icons are below the panel I am able to scroll the desktop either by using my mouse wheel when the cursor is over the desktop or by left dragging on the desktop to draw the icon selection "rubber band" and dragging it toward the bottom of the screen (similar to the way the rubber band scrolls an ordinary file manager window) The desktop stays scrollable until I right click on the desktop and use the "Arrange Icons" feature in the context menu (it doesn't matter which auto arrange I select). Sometimes icons are placed "below the panel" automatically by other applications. This should not be allowed. (Submitted via bugs.kde.org)
This bug is still present. To replicate, make sure to have enough icons on the desktop. Then Icons->Line up vertically. Now use konqueror to download something to the desktop. Even though most of the time the icons of the downloaded file will be in the visible area of the desktop, the desktop is still scrollable when dragging a rubber band to the bottom of the screen.

I can confirm this on KDE 3.1.4 on Debian.
Also reproducable on KDE 3.2 RC1
This seems a duplicate of #46316 to me. Also, it is reproduceable with KDE 3.2.1.
Still present in CVS at 27/7/04.
This bug is still in cvs and is going to be passed to kde 3.3.0 final. I can provide screenshots very fast if you write me. - Reply to this bug - Write to ktech@wanadoo.es It's not a very bad bug, but gives a very bad looking to kde. Thanks.
like all the other 5000 open bug reports. I would say, not too many users drag their icons so far, so I don't consider it of major importance. If you got a fix, let us know.
This happens to me without the icons going to far. Hiding and bring back the taskbar would fix it before, or refreshing the desktop but with 3.3 I can't get it to go away. A tid bit annoying with my OCD'ish habits.

The bug can still be reproduced in 3.3.2. 2Stephan Kulow: Maybe it's true, that not too many users drag their icons so far -- but some people may have arranged the icons randomly. Then it's enough to have icon placed on the bottom of the screen, entitled by one line of text ("textfile" for example), then I rename it so that it gets two lines as a title ("textfile textfile"). Then again, the lower end of the icon is off screen.
