Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:

  * open a Nautilus window
  * minimize other windows so you can see some desktop icons next to the Nautilus window
  * click on the Nautilus window to give it focus
  * press ctrl-2 to switch to grid view
  * press ctrl-+ a few times to make the icons larger

Expected results: the icons in the Nautiuls window get bigger but the desktop icons do not change

Actual results: the icons in the Nautiuls window get bigger but the desktop icons do too, often building up in the lower-right corner of the desktop and loosing icon positions

Ubuntu 18.04 64-bit; Nautilus 1:3.26.3-0ubuntu4
