Can I position an icon installed by AddFolderIcon()?

[peterbi]

Hi,

A simple question, can I put an icon installed by AddFolderIcon() to a specific location on desktop, say upleft conner? Default call to AddFolderIcon() will put it to the next available shortcut spot on desktop, I wonder if we can change it?


Thanks,
Peter

I don't think you can; the intention is to let the user control that (users may have auto-arrange turned on, have the desktop hidden, and so on), and I'm not aware of an API for it...

Even if you could, it would be very unfriendly to rearrange a user's icons.

Thank you all for the information!
