Hey folks,
After a recent reboot, somehow, my primary monitor (dual monitor setup) which has the default Garuda Dr460nized top bar and latte dock (as does the secondary extended monitor), no longer seems to respect it’s settings and the desktop icons appear underneath/behind the top bar. I’ve compared the settings in both the “Show panel configuration” and in the “Panel colorizer” - and they’re identical. However, the icons on the primary monitor are able to “snap” underneath the bar, and the icons on the secondary monitor snap to just below the bar, like it used to. I don’t know how to fix this. Here are some screenshots:

In the Panel colorizer settings, I’ve re-loaded the “Dr460nized Top Panel” and confirmed that the “Presets auto-loading” options are identical between both Primary and Secondary monitor.
Here’s my garuda-inxi:

Short of entering “Edit mode”, removing the top panel, then re-adding the default garuda top panel, is there any way to troubleshoot this? I haven’t done this yet because I want to understand how this happens and how to fix it without going semi-nuclear on the fix.
Thanks in advance to any insights and guidance!
