Confirmed on Hardy as well. This is likely a result of the inotify tracking of a save-via-new-file-and-rename. For example, here is what gnumeric does when saving:
access("/home/kees/Desktop/test.gnumeric", W_OK) = 0 open("/home/kees/Desktop/.gsf-save-68H34T", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0600) = 14 rename("/home/kees/Desktop/.gsf-save-68H34T", "/home/kees/Desktop/test.gnumeric") = 0 The problem is that the desktop position of the new file is used, instead of the position of the resulting filename. -- Gnome desktop icons are shifted when the file is edited https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84262 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
