- IconWrap doesn't solve my problems either. What baffles me is that
- depending on the particular set of extensions I have on, the icons
- SOMETIMES wrap and sometimes overlap. Moreover, the particular place
- where they cease to wrap/start to overlap also changes, and is never the
- exact place where a previously active extension was present (and whose
- removal caused the change)!
- On a similar topic (I already have asked about it but have never received
- a satisfactory answer), I would like to have the startup icons show up
- OVER my startup screen. For some reason, the startup screen shows up, and
- then a grey pattern appears and the icons begin to "march". This is
- actually true even if I have no extensions active - just the gray pattern
- appears, and then the usual finder desktop.
- Can anybody explain what is going on?
