I don't agree. In this way you loss all the placement if you login with a different screen size. Even worse, if you change the size of desktop panel, this affect the size of working area. So you loss the placement of all icons. >> If the font or icon sizes get changed, how should the icons be placed? > > The font should be irrelevant, just place it centered under the icon. > If the icon size changes it becomes a custom icon, and has a width and > height associated. No, if you use larger font, fixed size and position will make the icon text totally unreadable. >> If we want to add icons for newly added devices, where should they be placed? > > In the first available spot. > > In the end, a lot of cases fall back to "newly added item". > > Bye. > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > This SF.net email is sponsored by > > Make an app they can't live without > Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge > http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev > _______________________________________________ > Lxde-list mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxde-list >
