How to line up icons on desktop

Post by eekie »

I would like to line up the many icons on my desktop. Right clicking the mouse on the desktop and clicking: keep aligned produces some sort of starry sky . I s there a way to line them up in neat columns and rows?

for me the icons alignment in KDE 4.3.5 is pretty good,
but in my desktop there are only few icons, only a row
so I cannot understand your problem

I have tried to add a 220 kb screen print of my starry icons, but adding failed presumably because the upper limit of illustrations has already been reached.

Manual grouping of the icons is possible but not permanent. After restart a new starry sky emerges.
Is there some workaround to make it permanent?
