Resizing works fine here, also with 3.15.90. The oversize icons are a known issue that will be fixed before 3.16 1. Perhaps it helps that I'm using my complete desktop well grown in F21, where the resizing works well. 2. Increasing the icon size works well, but not making smaller Creating a new user shows the same problems Resizing icons works for me (using a new install of F22). Try renaming your Gnome config files to see if it will work then. Start with these files: ~/.config/dconf/ ~/.config/nautilus/ If resizing still doesn't work, rename these as well: ~/.gnome ~/.gconf ~/.local/share/nautilus ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/ I think one (or some) of those should be relevant. You'll have to turn desktop icons back on (via gnome-tweak-tool) before you can test resizing. Oh, I just realized creating a new user would do just that.. Hmm. Have you updated to 3.15.91? Does the issue still persist with the latest updates? (In reply to Conley Moorhous from comment #5) > Oh, I just realized creating a new user would do just that.. Hmm. Have you > updated to 3.15.91?

If you have sudo set up, just type sudo dnf upgrade into a terminal. Otherwise, su to switch to the administrator account and then dnf upgrade To check the version of gnome-shell that you currently have, type sudo dnf info gnome-shell Or go to Gnome Control Center (Settings) -> Details. sudo dnf upgrade Using metadata from Tue Mar 10 10:45:12 2015 Dependencies resolved. Nothing to do. backes@eule [~/Desktop]: sudo dnf upgrade gnome-shell Using metadata from Tue Mar 10 10:45:12 2015 Dependencies resolved. Nothing to do. So seems not available found in any f22 repo :-( I checked now the same with 3.15.91, but i's not possible to make the icons size arbitrarily smaller.

Increasing the icon size works well, but not making smaller Still with gdm-3.16.0.1-1.fc22.x86_64 making icons smaller does not work.

Solved by configuring Nautilus using the files menue in the gnome dashboard appearing if opening some nautilus window on the desktop. |
