I agree with this wholeheartedly...I would really like to see this feature in
KDE 3.1.
I think what would be really cool is if the desktop icons would line
themselves up when you drag them around (as suggested by this wishlist item),
but also, if kdesktop would figure out what spacing to use automatically.
Right now, when you line icons up, KDE sticks them all in the upper left
corner (I like my trash in the lower right).
The 3.0.1 behavior was better than the current CVS behavior...it lined things
up and kept them in approximately the right places, but sometimes it would
use weird spacing, and my trashcan would show up, say 50 pixels above the
panel and 15 pixels away from the right side of the screen. This looks ugly,
and should be fixed somehow. I only have a vague idea how this might be done,
but Windows XP handles icon placement very nicely (and even accomodates for
different taskbar sizes and making everything line up without putting the
recycle bin way up).
I've been toying with writing a patch for this, but I don't think I know
enough about KDE to do it right.
