Get rid of grid on the deskop

Open probonopd opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Would love to see the icons on the desktop to be freely movable, not inside a grid.

Especially while doing drag-and-drop operations, the icon should be moved continuously, not in discrete steps.

On the Mac, the user can choose to "arrange" icons which kinda puts them on an otherwise entirely invisible grid.

This is a Lumina legacy. Been planning to do something about it, but never had the time.

Maybe let https://github.com/rodlie/qtfm do the desktop?

This would guarantee consistent behavior between icons in a window and icons on the desktop, including right-click action. Should also allow for the removal of duplicated code.

Maybe it would make sense to combine QtFM and Draco into one project.

Parts of qtfm has already been integrated, the storage part is from qtfm.

merging more is always an option.
