Some desktop icons non-sticky
#5
You be welcome  8)
So far the only thing I've found that works is to run

Code:
sudo chattr +i ~/.config/xfce4/desktop/icons*

That locks the icon config file from being written to so they stay where they're put.

To unlock so their positions can be changed run

Code:
sudo chattr -i ~/.config/xfce4/desktop/icons*

They can still be moved around while locked but a desktop refresh (F5), logout/login/restart etc. puts them back to their locked positions.
Any new icons will still be placed in the left hand column, top to bottom regardless of locked or unlocked.
