Hi

I want my disk icons to be on the left-hand side of the desktop. I move them there, but everytime I boot the computer, they're back on the right.

On Windows, it just leaves them where I put them. On Amiga OS, I used to be able to snapshot icon positions.

Is there a way to do this?

I have Panther 10.3.4.

Thanks. :)

I believe that the icons are alway on the right side, but you can try the following and see what happens.

View -> Show View Options - Turn off Snap to grid.
