Wallpaper Switching Module Thread last updated on 2006-01-05 12:24:39

Does anyone know of a module that allows you to explicitly select your wallpaper and supports pngs?

Sorry to ask this here, but the litestep.net module archive doesn't have one and loose-screws is down.

lswchanger says it does but it doesn't seem to. I can't say I've tried many modules, however.

I don't think there are wallpaper modules that support PNGs, which is ironic because litestep core has for a long time now supported PNG images--probably just that no one cares to update one.

Here's a batch file dependent on xLabel and IrfanView that I once wrote for someone:
f:
cd \wallpaper
dir /b /a-d>"%temp%\index.txt"
litestep.exe !ParseEvars !execute [e:\iview\i_view32.exe "f:\wallpaper\%%[randomLine('%temp%\index.txt')]%%" /resample=($ResolutionX$,$ResolutionY$) /wall=1 /silent /convert="%temp%\temp.bmp"]
del "%temp%\temp.bmp"

As for letting you explicitly select a file, comdlgls-0.7 could do.
