The [current] "keep aligned" option only works in a vertical fashion, and not horizontal.

It is annoying that I cannot keep my desktop icons perfectly spaced into a grid fashion, unlike Windows and MacOS which *do* have that option.

Not only annoying, but also not being able to have my icons perfectly aligned interferes with my productivity level as well, as it can take a little longer for me to sift through my icons because they are distributed unevenly across a horizontal and vertical playing field.

The [current] "keep aligned" option only works in a vertical fashion, and not horizontal.
