Different wallpaper on 2nd monitor? Thread last updated on 2004-03-26 14:55:41

There was a way of doing it using active desktop and pointing to a image file in explorer.

But is there a way litestep can do that? I looked up the lswallpapaer and din't see anything in there for second monitor.

If you are using an nvidia card, there is an option under the advanced settings to use two different wallpapers.

I used to create a bitmap the size of the entire desktop with the backgrounds in the right place (which doesn't make a lot of sense if your second monitor is in negative space), then set that as a tiled background.

Hm, it should be possible to make a LS module that would automate that process, though I think it'd make more sense to just be a small generic tool. Hm...

Yes. No. The VWM is basically orthogonal to multiple monitors, there is no particular relationship between the two. That sounds like a video driver problem or possibly a bug in label.
