Is there an option available to sort the icons on the desktop? Using IGEL OS 11 with reduced desktop (no taskbar, just session icons and reboot/shutdown. Would like to have the icons in a specific order
Hi, for the moment only by using some directories on the Desktop. A properly spoken sorting feature isn’t available by default, will check if there is a script magic possible but can’t promise it.
Basically, the Desktop Icons are listed Alphabetically 0-1, a-z, sometime Sessions like a Terminal is named as 00220_xterm_000.desktop and goes to the top, even if the name “local terminal” would sort after D a.e.
So, without any kind of warranty, you could do the following:
1) locate your Shortcuts (terminal, root): ll/userhome/Desktop
2) rename the Sessions you want to order, in a Numerical order:
mv 000700_pnlogin_000.desktop 100700_pnlogin_000.desktop
If that works, you could put that commands in a Custom Command After desktop Starts.
Hope that makes sense.
