I sometimes have a "floater" problem.
My icons are more or less arranged in several columns on the left side
of my screen.  Every now and then an icon will float up to fill in an
empty slot above it -- even with "Lock In Place" set.

I unlock, pull it back down, re-lock, and it stays put for a week or so.

Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS  and  Trinity 14.0.6 [DEVELOPMENT] using the
Preliminary Stable Builds repository.


Aside:  Is there a "proper way" to get the Trinity version/level info
out of the system?  I usually go into konqueror -> Help -> About Trinity
But, if there is a more definitive way....

Happy New Year to All!!
