Desktop Icon Spacing - scott.halvorson - 11-04-2020

Hello, I am trying to change the spacing between the icons on my desktop. I would like to place them closer together than they currently are. I am attempting to follow this guide: https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=58685. I am confused when it comes to editing "~/.config/gtk.css" as I'm unsure where to locate this file. When I go to the folder for my current theme (/usr/share/themes/Adapta-Nokto/gtk-3.0/) I see a gkt.css file however it does not seem like this is the correct file to edit. I'm wondering how I would find the "~/.config/gtk.css" file. Thank you for your help!

I believe you could create an rc file for this, but Jerry would have to weigh in on this to be sure.
~/.config/xfce4/xfwm4/xfwm4rc with xfwm4rc being the file created. You can then use the commands IconGrid=some integer and IconSpacing=some integer. However I would wait to hear from some others here first.
