Description Marius M. M. 2007-12-26 12:32:31 UTC 
It would be nice if Nautilus would let the user choose whether he'd like the icons on the desktop be aligned on the left side (like Windows-Users are used to) or on the right side (like on Macs). I searched for this bug and I was impressed that I couldn't find anything on this topic - maybe I just used the wrong keywords.
However, at the moment it is possible to drag all icons to the right side, but as soon as the "Clean up by name" desktop-menu-item is clicked, everything flies back onto the left side.
