Folder View takes its icon size from the configured (in System Settings) Desktop/File Manager icon size.
I still don't even understand what "folder view" is or what it's supposed to accomplish. How is that any different from a short-cut to a folder? Or sized file manager view?
Well, it's just that - a view of a folder. Traditionally the whole desktop would be a "view" of ~/Desktop. But now you can view any folder you please, and even several different folder views on the same desktop at the same time (say one for Desktop, one for Documents, one for your download folder or whatever). The folder view offers a scrollbar, filters, it's resizable, in time it'll have file previews and more goodies. .. Basically it can make your desktop much more organized and powerful. Some people will say "I never see my desktop, it's covered by windows all the time". They have two options - just remove the folder view you don't have to use it - or use the dashboard, it's only 1 click or 1 keyboard shortcut away. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
