Hello, I was wondering if it is possible to bypass the desktop grid. Like, I want to place a folder on my desktop at a very specific place, but the desktop grid doesn’t allow me to do it. So I was asking if there is any possibility to bypass it like on Windows for example, if I remember well with a setting you could bypass it and place something on the desktop wherever you want.
