"Align to Grid" for icons on desktop

Thu Sep 17, 2009 10:43 am
It is possible to activate the "align to grid" option for files on the desktop in folderview mode. But the icons (is that a plasmoid, too?) can't placed in a grid.

I think it's a good idea also to develop this "align to grid" feature for icons.

This feature has already been requested. You can find it searcing on plasma wishes.

There are two wish:
- align to grid
- snap align to other plasmoids.

There is already a grid applet in playground.

in kdeplasma-addons/containments/groupingdesktop/griddesktop there's a containment providing a grid to place the widgets, so the icons too.
There's a screencast on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tOAzCQUd5o
