[Bug 1413117] [NEW] icon captions on desktop don't disappear

 

Public bug reported:

In nautilus, when I go to Edit -> Preferences -> Display -> icon captions,  and change the highest order (first one) from None to Type (or anything else), this change is not applied to desktop icons and nothing happens to them. And when I set it back to None, Type captions (or whatever I selected at first) appear under desktop icons.
This problem only occurs for desktop icons. It works fine for icons in other directories.

Actually I expect that when I change icon captions from None to Type,
type information of each file or directory appears under desktop icons,
but nothing happens. And furthermore I expect that when I change it back
to None,  type information disappears, but they appear.
