mock-up of folder-tick-box for wallpapers

SUMMARY
Wishlisting the option to select/deselect folders in the Folders list when using Wallpaper Type > Slideshow.

As per now, you can tick off/on individual wallpapers in the preview window, but can't to this on a "per folder level" without having to delete them.


Please see the attached, embarassingly crude, mock-up if my explanation is unclear.

As with all wishlist items, it not a priority ofc, but I think it would be a welcome minor addition for wallpaper obsessive people :)

I have myself wished for the same thing. Probably not that hard to do.

Doesn't look very ui-wise though
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2022-06-01 16:38:28 UTC
Looks like this got implemented at some point; now you can uncheck the checkbox for an image and it won't be included in the slideshow.

Yeah, there’s the option to check/uncheck at a per-image-Badis, as mentioned in the ticket. 
But I was thinking along the lines of check/uncheck the folders you’ve added and that are visible in the side pane which shows all the folders currently “in use”.
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2022-06-02 14:36:07 UTC
Yeah for that there's a much simpler solution: just remove the folder. :)
