Yes, I agree. Currently, a scaled image across multiple displays gets distorted. Centering places the image inbetween the two displays and leaves large borders. This capability is already there when the two displays are separate X devices - KDE recognizes that fine. In addition, KDE allows the taskbar to be placed on either display (although not on all displays). I agree too. In the meanwhile I've written a script that does the magic. It creates via perl and ImageMagick a big image from 2 or more normal images (tiled background pictures are handled correctly). I put a small wrapper script around it and every hour I get a large random background image. Maybe you want to use this temporary solution. B-) Created attachment 5373 [details]
Set different wallpapers on two xinerma screens.
Oops, forgot to include text. Found this little baby on the web to do what we require. It's been slightly modified by me to work. -=david=- Yeah, that is what my work makes easier. A new option in wallpaper settings, one backgound on every screen, like windows does, could also be usefull. cu denny |
