Hi,

I'm using the theme "simplicity".

I have 4 virtual desktops, now i want to have a different wallpaper for every different desktop.

desktop1/wallpaper1
desktop2/wallpaper2
...

How?

Check the documentation of your VWM module.

i'm using ckVWM

try rabidvwm, i think it includes what you want to do.

The Problem is, i use "simplicity", and want to use it in the future.

"simplicity" uses ckVWM

Get a module that changes your wallpaper on http://www.loose-screws.com. That module shaould have bangs to change your WP. Now in your config, tell it to execute that bang when changing VWM (check your ckVWM and wallchnager docs for more info on doing this)

I believe ckVWM includes a feature to set the wallpaper on each desktop. It may not be properly documented, search through the changelog for "paper"

RabidVWM contains information on how to do this in its documentation, which requires an additional module to actually change the wallpaper. This method can be adapted fairly easily to work with ckVWM as well.
