Can icons placed on desktop be in a regular geometric pattern.I think it tries to do that. But over the years I've had differing monitor geometries. Does operator have any control over where next icon is placed?Just curious ;/ TIA
I received an off-list reply saying, in part:
"Organise desktop by name" from the desktop (right click) menu results in a broadly rectangular formation of icons, but doesn't seem to impose alphabetical order as might be expected, nor indeed any afaics, at least in Buster. You may know this already, and the "keep aligned" option (to keep new icons in the pattern or some future point of it), though the space between the desktop left edge and the top and left of the first icon row is unequal.
That solved my problem.
