xfdesktop does not remember the icon position of files with [] signs in filename Example file name: [abc]1234.txt
Sounds like duplicate of bug #2975.
It's probably 2 year old Bug 5935. https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5935 No one was interested. It's problem with file name saving in: .config/xfce4/desktop/icons.screen0.rc Name isn't readed back properly. Why not use formating something like: "X Y filename" in one line. It should be simple and fast. Sorry for my english.(In reply to comment #1) > Sounds like duplicate of bug #2975.
