GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 88188
Default positions of desktop icons don't consider varying length of translated icon names

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=67858 My theory is that there's a hardcoded icon position, but I haven't actually looked.
The icon name display need improving. After increase the resolution in the Font Rendering Details dialog box of GNOME, the icon name may exceed the desktop border.
is that still an issue with the current versions ?
I'd say so - increasing desktop font size to insane sizes does not move the icons.
Well, actually with 2.10 Icon text does not render off-screen any more. Also see Bug 91547 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 91547 ***
Comment #3 is a different issue.
