Does anyone know how to change the icon spacing (grid snap) on the desktop? I have seen it before, but can't remember where. Any help would be appreciated.

Nevermind! I found it. For those that are interested, the values are in the registry. (IconSpacing and IconVerticalSpacing)

You can also go into the display properties and click on the appearance tab. Then click on the drop down in the item box and select Icon Spacing (Horizontal/Vertical) and change the size.

OK, that's what I was looking for. I thought you could get it through a menu. Thanks.
