Ubuntu 19.04 comes with gnome shell extension: "desktop icons". In previous versions of Ubuntu desktop icons was provided by nautilus, but new version of nautilus (3.32) lost desktop icons functionality.
Unfortunately looks like extension's author decided not to implement any sorting/rearranging features: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/ShellExtensions/desktop-icons/issues/98 ** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/World/ShellExtensions/desktop-icons/issues #98 https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/ShellExtensions/desktop-icons/issues/98 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1826056 Title: Desktop context: Keep aligned, Organize desktop by name missing in 19.04 Status in gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading from 18.10 to 19.04 the desktop context menu no longer contains the choices: Keep aligned Organize desktop by name These were very useful to me.
