config file with icon location KDE?
 
This question is for KDE 3.2 under suse 9.1 pro.

I have one user who placed their icons all over the desktop where they want them. I now want to give someo f these icons, in their exact same locations, to other users.

Where is the config file that stores the x/y coordinates of the icons on the desktop? I have found some places that tell you in kdesktoprc or something you can set the coordinates on the grid to snap them to, but there must be some location where KDE stores the x,y if you just drag them around the desktop and leave them where you want. IE, I want to duplicate the locations they are sitting in right now, without guessing at coordinates and loading kde and checking and hoping its close

Anyone know where I can find it?

thanks

I'm looking at Slackware-current with KDE 3.4.0, and the X/Y coordinates of desktop icons are stored in /home/user/.kde/share/apps/kdesktop/IconPositions

Hope that helps.
