I just noticed something: why in folders there are no ‘pages’ like in desktops and panels?
I mean: in edit mode the only lines are the grid ones, not those with the size of the container.
Also with the seamless mode you can’t have a space at the right, it is like if the ‘fit desktop to screen’ were always checked (when it is not) and with the ‘snap to pages option active’
If you still don’t understand:
In a desktop with a grid of 5×5 place an item in the first cell (0,0,1,1) and another one in the top left of the second page (5,0,6,1). Activate the seamless mode and the snap to pages, deactivate the fit desktop to items.
If you scroll horizontally, each time you can see only one item at the top left corner. Ok.
If you do the same in a folder, when you scroll the first time to the right, both items are displayed one right near the other.

Not for me :/
Are you sure ‘fit desktop to items’ is unchecked?

Honestly I don’t remember exactly. Maybe this is linked with the fact that a folder is usually resized to the minimum size (more or less the items bounding box) and the origin is not necessarily displayed on the top left corner. Pagination is not as strict as in a desktop.
After looking at the code, there are few tests checking for a folder context, this is more a user point of view difference rather than a real behavior difference. Except for the bounding box computation: basically this is as if “fit desktop to items” is always on for folders.
