Description Alexander Fieroch 2022-01-05 14:34:39 UTC 
The screensaver running before screen locking allows a slideshow with wallpapers/images from folders.

It would be great to improve the screensaver settings and function like glslideshow from package xscreensaver does.

It needs
- a test/preview button
- a pan/zoom for images
- a crossfade duration between images
- show different images on every monitor for multi-monitor setups

This is out of scope.
Comment 2 Alexander Fieroch 2022-01-07 08:39:14 UTC 
This is working on other Operating Systems like MacOS and Windows and it is working in xscreensaver (which does not work together with kscreenlocker) - so why do not improve plasma screensaver to have a great appearance for KDE plasma that satisfies its kscreenlocker design?
I know, it's not that important, but it would be really nice to have. Many users wonder why KDE screensaver is so basic and boring...
