            Bug ID: 16047
           Summary: Icons get "rendered offscreen" when "Window scaling"
                    is set to "2x"
    Classification: Xfce Core
           Product: Xfdesktop
           Version: 4.14.1
          Hardware: PC (x86_64)
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Medium
         Component: General
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: pezcurrel at tiscali.it
  Target Milestone: Xfce 4.14

On my laptop I have an HiDPI, "4k", 3840x2160 monitor, so I have set "window
scaling" to "2x" under "settings" -> "appearence" -> "settings". Everything
works as expected but the desktop.
Let's say you have a desktop with no icons yet and have "icons orientation" set
to "top left vertical" (the default); now you create some files on the desktop:
file "1", "2", "3" and so on, until these files' icons fill the vertical size
of your desktop, let's say, with file "8". Now you create file "9". Its icon
doesn't show on the desktop, it "gets rendered below its bottom", and the same
happens with new file "10", "11" and so on, until you reach file "17": its icon
gets rendered on top of screen as first icon of a new column, while icons for
files from "9" to "16" stay offscreen and there's no way to reach them.
It's like the algorithm that places the icons is considering a double-sized
desktop.
