hey guys, just have a small problem.. when I save a bunch of files to the desktop (which I frequientlyl do) and my view is the text and info on the right of the icon on the desktop with snap to grid. so anyways as I save more and more files, once it the files get to the bottom, they start just piling on top of each other right on the bottom. and not only that it is under the dock, it goes wayyy to the bottom of the screen. does anyone know how to fix this? I like the text on the side because it is different and you can fit much more items on the desktop with the neat snap to grid feature than with the text on bottom.

thanks in advance,

Command N

Click desktop

You know... I never realized there isn't a shortcut for desktop... always figured it'd be shift command D

haha thanks, I didn't know about that shortcut. I guess for the actual desktop. have to wait for the next os x fix..

Instead of Snap To Grid, try Keep Arranged By. I keep them arranged by kind, but what ever floats your boat.
