Add a different icon size setting for desktop and navigation windows

[Nicolas Joyard]

Binary package hint: nautilus

It would be nice to enable setting a different default icon size for desktop icons and navigation windows icons. Currently changing the default size affects both icons.

Thanks for your report, Being navigation icons which ones? can you clarify or take a screenshot? thanks.

[Nicolas Joyard (joyard-nicolas)]

No problem.

Currently there's a "default icon size" setting in nautilus preferences (which value is set in %). This setting affects _all_ nautilus icons, that is desktop icons but also icons in other nautilus disk browsing windows. What I would like to have are two separate icon size setting, one for the desktop, and one for all other nautilus windows.

Don't hesitate to let me know if it's still not clear enough !

Hmm... Actually there are two size settings, one for "icon view" and one for "list view"... A third one for the desktop is what I would like (currently the "icon view" setting also affects the desktop)...

Hum... I reopen as I _did_ provide additional information. Is there something not clear enough in my last two posts ?

I'm interested too in this feature: Desktop icons size different from folder icons size.

ps: I Can't find the duplicate of this bug
