[opensuse] Different Wallpapers for Different Virtual Desktops
Any body remember this issue with KDE/Plasma ? The source of two years of bitching? https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341143 (I suspect David Rankin remembers...) One clever guy hijacked the slide show switcher to accomplish wallpaper switching on each virtual desktop... And posted it on the above thread. https://github.com/martenjj/wallpaperswitch 6 one line commands, and it works!!! Wow. A technical bitchslap if ever I saw one. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

By the way, you will need these libs installed at a minimum Qt5::Core Qt5::Widgets KF5::I18n KF5::CoreAddons KF5::ConfigCore KF5::ConfigWidgets KF5::WidgetsAddons KF5::IconThemes KF5::XmlGui KF5::WindowSystem KF5::KIOCore KF5::KIOFileWidgets KF5::Notifications and probably a few more. Manjaro installed these by default but I had to chase them in Opensuse 42.2. But it does work quite nicely -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Haven't seen much from David Rankin for quite some time.

Plus quite a bit of code. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.9°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Actually, I went through the code, and it wasn't that much. Clearly the guy knows quite a bit about the internals of kde. He spent more time on the control and configuration interface than the actual switching task itself. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
