Upgraded to 15.5 from 15.4; Now my icons get messed up when I resize the window

I run OpenSUSE in VMware. Have several icons arranged in the grid pattern at the top left of the window. There’s now a bug, introduced freshly with 15.5, where when I resize the (guest OS) window, my icons are “pushed over”/messed up and no longer in a nice grid. If I resize the window back then they go back to a grid.

So, how do I disable this auto-arranging? Locking the icons has no effect.

I get the vague idea that you use a desktop environment (talking about icons and the like). But you fail to inform us which one you use. :frowning_face:

The default, which is KDE. In 15.5 that’s KDE 5.27.4

Thank you.
BTW, I do not know why you call it the default, but it certainly isn’t the “default” here when you forget to tell. People can not base any help on assumptions, they need facts.

It’s the default because if you install OpenSUSE 15.5 on a new machine, it will install KDE by default.

Not really. It maybe the one that is checked in the radio buttons, but hey, there must be one on in a set of radio buttons. And many do use others (e.g. Gnome) and you can not expect that all people here sit down when you do not tell and then start guessing, thinking back to an installation process they may have done may years ago and then still know what was the one that was pre-selected (same for all other pre-selected or default settings from the installer). It is you that should provide at least the minimal information so that potential helpers can have some image in their mind about your environment.

BTW, you seem to use Virtualization. Why did you decide not to start this in the Virtualization section where the virtualization gurus will lure?

I haven’t used this forum in ages. I must have forgotten there was a separate subforum.

Can you please move the thread?

Done …
