Bug Description
I have 2 monitors connected in "Join Display Mode".
Monitor 1 (secondary) 1366x798, Landscape, 100%
Monitor 2 (primary) 1920x1080, Landscape, 100%
I can see files on the Desktop inside the File Browser, but on the Desktop icons are either not visible or limited text from one of the icons can be seen in the top left corner of the secondary monitor.
Screenshots attached.
