Once the background.xml file has been generated, right-click on the desktop, select Change Background Image, click Add..., then navigate to the directory containing the XML file. Just above the "Open" button change the selector from "Image" to "All files", then select the background.xml file and click on the "Open" button. The file can be renamed to be more descriptive, such as my_family.xml, landscapes-3.xml, etc., allowing one to have multiple slide show playlists.

Ok here is how I did it, which is probably not the best way to do it but it worked and I didn't have to install anything to do it. Back in 11.10 I found the below python script (slideshow.py) which generates a slideshow.xml file (run from directory with the images in it). This is still the file needed in 12.04 but you also need another XML file. Put the XML file generated by slideshow.py script in /usr/share/backgrounds/contest and chown it to root. Once that is done you'll need to run the second python script (wallpapers.py) which was adapted from the first. Put the file generated from wallpapers.py in /usr/share/gnome-background-properties and again chown it to root. At that point you should be able to go into "System Settings" -> Appearance and pick your slideshow or any of the pics in it.

According to this OMG! Ubuntu post, you have for example 'Wallpaper Gallery'. It takes as input data tagged photos from your Shotwell gallery. Therefore it becomes very easy to add & remove photos for instance.

contains everything. Your file must begin with it and end with . It's called the root tag.
defines when the diaporama starts. A precise date must be given, any date.
contains the definition of a still image.
is used to fade from one image to the other.
gives in seconds the time during witch the picture is displayed or the fading time.
contains a single image to show as still.
and contain single images which are respectively the one at the beginning and at the end of a fading.

Visit the gnome-extension homepage and switch the slide on. Afterwards you can configure the extension to change the background's change time and the backgrounds itselfs. To do so open gnome-tweaks, go to the Extension tab and click on the Configure icon of the desk-changer.

After seeing this request, I was curious about a solution and found something to be able to get your wallpaper image to be a part of the default wallpaper selection when going into System Settings >> Appearances. Follow the steps below in a terminal:

Once you are in that file, you will see tags called and that is around the other tags like and . You will need to copy that and paste it right below that entry. Once done, you should edit that extra entry you added to match what you want. An example can be found below:

In this example, I made changes to the , , , and information to match what I needed for the wallpaper I wanted. Now I see the wallpaper as a default selection in the wallpaper section of the System Settings -> Appearance GUI:

In case you use gnome-shell (version > 3.12, default in Ubuntu 17.10 and later), use this nice extension. This extension fetches a random wallpaper from an online source and sets it as desktop background. The desktop background can be updated periodically or manually.

Visit the gnome-extension homepage and switch the slide on. Afterwards you can configure the extension. To do so open gnome-tweaks, go to the Extension tab and click on the Configure icon of the random-wallpaper.

feh, an imlib2 based image viewer is a very flexible, efficient and and powerful X11 image viewer aimed mostly at console users. "Unlike most other viewers, it does not have a fancy GUI, but simply displays images. It is controlled via commandline arguments and configurable key/mouse actions."

I'm doing randomized slideshows of a set of many thousands of images with it, in a deep directory structure. When running in window mode, rather than desktop background, I can add comments to them easily when I see one I like, and go into sequential mode to look for similar ones.

I have done some testing and can nearly achieve what I want but for some reason the desktop wallpaper goes from being a stretched fit to centred, im pretty sure i could resolve this by having a correct sized wallaper if i wanted to force a specific one ( which i dont ) does anyone know of a way around this ?

Hi Shepherd getting it to work isnt the issue, i can do this and it keeps the wallpaper preferences, but what is does is displays that wallpaper i.e the windows default wallpaper at its actual size which is much smaller than the resolution of my screen. in other words it stops strecthing the wallpaper to fill the screen, it gives me a lovely black border.

Source and exe are included. It is a program that runs as a process really small foot print. By default sits in top right corner. Look for compinfo.exe in processes if you want to get rid of it. I deploy this with my start up group policy. Hopefully you know how to code in vb so you can make changes to your needs :).

Cheers, just tried it but same thing mate, we run 27" screens with a high resolutions which appears to be the issue but i cant believe theres no work around for this, i cant be the only one using this on a 27" screen with hi-res

Is there a way I can use Java (or Groovy) to change my desktop wallpaper in Windows XP? I have a program that creates a new image every day (or whenever) and I would like a way to automatically update my desktop.

Here is a Pure Java implementation which uses Project Panama to make the native callbacks into Windows USER32.DLL. Note that the API is incubating so has changed between JDK16, 17 and later builds. These samples use the versions of Panama that are in the current JDK16/17 release, some changes may be required if you switch to the latest Panama Early Access builds.

Step two: use a .mobleconfig to set the wallpaper. This does not work for me and there are no readable logs so I am having difficulty debugging the problem with workflow. All I see on the test computer is the screen flash when the configuration profile is saved and after that, the desktop image stays the same.

I recently purchased a new 40 inch, 4k monitor which has been great. However, in my hunt to find high resolution, high quality desktop wallpapers for my new desktop size, I have found that I'm unable to apply any PNG wallpaper larger than 24.9MB (or effectively 25MB). It seems to be a hard limit for PNGs (JPEG doesn't seem to have the same problem) and whenever I try to set a wallpaper that's larger than that, it thinks for a second or two and then automatically sets the background to a solid color.

One solution would be to manually reformat and compress or resize the images in Photoshop. But I have quite a few images that are all different ratios and sizes and that seems to be more work than is necessary. Work smarter, not harder, right?

So my question boils down to this:Is there a way to remove this file size limit for desktop wallpapers in Windows 10 through a registry hack or setting? Or is this something that's hard-coded into the OS?

This depends somewhat on which DE you are using. Raspbian by default uses LXDE, so if you search online for "LXDE change background" you will find some suggestions, such as right-clicking on the desktop.

Note : If you can't find the line corresponding to your resolution, add the line with a text-editor because the width and height values of the configuration line must correspond exactly to your display resolution setting.

If running a recent version of Raspbian (Debian wheezy), you can simply go to Menu, select Preferences, then Appearance Settings, and under Picture select the .png file you want for your background, and it changes right away.

I am configuring Group Policy in Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise to apply Desktop Wallpaper to Users and Computer in OU called HR. I shared the folder over the network using share and storage management. I configured the desktop wallpaper settings in the following order:

AD/GPO Replication - Ensure that your domain controllers can replicate between eacother (if you have mroe than 1, which hopefully you do). It's all good building a policy on a DC - but if there are multiple DCs that arent talking to eachother and your client is talking to the other DC - you're in trouble. You can check this by opening GPMC, going to Domain > Group Policy Objects > your GPO > Status (tab) > "Detect Now":

Test other Settings - is it the whole GPO or just this setting? Try adding something trivial to the Group Policy (a random drive mapping, removing the Run Command from start menu etc) and see if this applies. This will narrow you down to a setting or policy level issue

Check your path - copy and paste the path of the image from the GPO into file explorer on the PC thats not applying the setting - can the user actually acces the image? is there a tpyo in the path? is it a permissions issue? I know it sounds stupid - but I've done it and know others who have as well.

Inheritance - Group Policy modelling (above) will show this. It could be that you have a policy higher up the chain which stops the changing of wallpapers or sets a different wallpaper.
