Bug ID: 467449
Summary: Allow spatial positioning of icons
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
Currently, the Plasma Desktop only allows positioning of icons on a strict grid
basis. This is a bit inconvenient, in the following terms:
1. The desktop violates the user's action of positioning an item on a specific
location. User can reposition items explicitly when desired (via an
Cleanup/Arrange action).
2. It feels like the software is like a mother constantly cleaning up after her
children.
3. Desktop, for most folks, is a real workspace. We arrange icons, according to
the things that we work on, we sometimes group them on specific locations on
the screen. Without spatial positioning, this does not quite work.
4. It is familiar for folks that use operating systems like macOS and/or Haiku.
This will make them feel at home with Plasma.
