Does anybody know how to reduce this white space - distance on nemo or nautilus between the folders? It's getting ridiculous! I've enlarged the thumbnails from dconf-editor and I also use compact mode, which seems kind of messy. The folders are tiny and have a lot of space between them.

In the attachment picture you see one folder takes all over the screen there's sure space for more! Can I edit the source code or something for the file manager, forcing it to use a bigger icons for the folders? Is there a better solution?!

You need to zoom out.

Use Ctrl + Scroll to zoom in and out, like you would do on a webpage.

You might also prefer listview - at the top click the icon that looks like this: ≡. It will look like this instead:

  • Thanks for replying but zooming surely doesn't fix my problem. Is there something possible for icon view and without text besides icon , like a normal folder thumbnail without unnecessary spacing. – Fivos Jun 08 '15 at 12:33
  • Here's what folder besides folder looks like when zooming out. After this point they become tiny. There's space here enough to fit double of the folders http://imgur.com/UAfzBXz – Fivos Jun 08 '15 at 12:38
  • That seems to be as compact as they go. – Tim Jun 08 '15 at 12:53
