[Bug 40872] Re: Desktop icons are allowed to overlap horribly

2009-11-14 Thread watervole02
Just to elaborate on the pic above, when "Align to Grid" is checked, you can't overlap icons by dragging one over another. This makes it different from "Keep Aligned" in Nautilus. -- Desktop icons are allowed to overlap horribly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/40872 You received this bug notifica

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-11-14 Thread watervole02
I'd like to see this bug fixed; it's annoying not having this easy rename feature. I rarely activate this feature unintentionally on Windows XP and when I do make a mistake, all I have to do is click elsewhere on the desktop and double click the icon again.

This desktop bug has been around for too long; I would not consider it low priority. Here's a pic of Windows XP's desktop options; you can have overlapped icons or icons aligned to a grid. ** Attachment added: "overalign.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35708635/overalign.png -- Desktop ico

[Bug 381156] [NEW] Clickable areas of icons are too small

2009-05-27 Thread watervole02
