** Description changed: I open this bug based on a discussion on the forum https://ubuntu- mate.community/t/when-i-drag-a-drop-an-icon-to-the-desktop-the-icon- appears-in-the-left-side-of-the-desktop/25478 As you can read in the discussion this bug affects Ubuntu Mate 20.04 and 22.04 . The problem is that when an icon (file or folder) is dropped on the desktop it is automatically placed in a fixed location on the left side of the desktop, it is never placed where I drop it. As it is fully explained in the forum discussion, that happens even if the "Keep Aligned" option is unchecked. When you have many widows opened it is really annoying to go to look for the icon. - There should be an option to change this behavior and leave the icon to - be placed exactly where it is dropped. + There should be an option to change this behavior and leave the icon to be placed exactly where it is dropped. + --- + ProblemType: Bug + ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.24 + Architecture: amd64 + CasperMD5CheckResult: skip + CurrentDesktop: MATE + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 + InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-11-14 (553 days ago) + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-MATE 20.04.1 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20200731) + Package: caja 1.24.0-1 + PackageArchitecture: amd64 + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-110.124-generic 5.4.181 + Tags: focal + Uname: Linux 5.4.0-110-generic x86_64 + UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) + UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin lxd plugdev sambashare sudo + _MarkForUpload: True ** Attachment added: "Dependencies.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1975373/+attachment/5592018/+files/Dependencies.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1975373 Title: When I drag a drop an icon to the desktop the icon never stay where I drop it.
