Kbuntu vertical display change, icon layer
by Johng from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6KPTV)
The vertical display on my Kbuntu 22.04 has suddenly changed.
The size of the deskop wallpaper is fixed and normal, however the layer containing desktop icons has expanded vertically, with a scroll bar on the right side, which will move the icons up and down.
Presumable, there is a setting somewhere that can be reset so that the icon layer is the same size as the wallpaper. Where is it??
Further testing:
The vertical size of the icon layer appears to be determined by icon placement at the top and bottom. If there is a row of icons at the top, the layer appears to "need" at least one icon below the bottom of the screen for a bottom row of icons to display on the screen. Dragging the below screen icon to mid screen seems to be not allowed, as it jumps back below the screen. A weird behaviour.
