Thunar - Increase Spacing Between Icons
 

Hi
Please check attached screenshot for reference.
I am using xfce desktop and this is icon view in thunar file manager. As you see that the spacing between icons is very small. Please guide me that how can I increase this spacing.
Regards

You can use the Ctrl + mouse wheel combination to change the icon size when in Thunar icon view.

Ctrl +
increase icon size, but it does not increase spacing between them.

which default view have you chosen?

if that doesn't help then you can only change it through gtk theme or settings overrides in ~/.gtkrc-2.0 (if thunar still uses gtk2).

I am using "icon view" in thunar preferences. XFCE is using gtk-2.0
I used following settings in ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file, but it is not changing icon spacing:

what you showed us in post #1 are not desktop icons, and its not xfdesktop but thunar.

My first post says:

exactly.
so why are you trying to modify xfdesktop's icon view in post #5?

Hmm... I am new to xfce (regularly uses cinnamon), and saw that settings on a forum, so I applied it :)

I think now the question is irrelavent, as I moved back to cinnamon. However, a fix for those who face the same problem would be helpful.
