The work-around does not work in my case. Upon reboot/re-logon a single icon file in .config/xfce4/desktop - which contains my preferred column/row locations for my icons - is ignored and all of the icons appear in column 1 of the desktop. Note: I confirmed that the file was exactly as preferred by inspection and, later, by making the folder and file immutable, a recommendation provided elsewhere.
I have tried most of the work-arounds posted in other forums including changing panel sizes and unguided tinkering with settings.
A single work-around that works for me is to execute xfdesktop --reload after the desktop is loaded while being certain that there is a single icon file in .config/xfce4/desktop describing my preferred icon locations.
Does anyone know of a more elegant way to permanently disable the xfce's presumption concerning my icon arrangements at boot/login.
