By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description wofgdkncxojef 2017-08-11 21:21:02 CDT

It would be nice to copy three wallpaper slideshow improvements from KDE4/5.

1.It would be nice to have recursive folders for wallpapers.

2.It would be nice, to be able to launch the current wallpaper in the default image viewer, from the right click menu of the desktop.

3. right click menu option with "next wallpaper".

Today, with multi TB SSDs, you can have users with .....10.000 wallpapers, neatly organized in folders. The recursive option allows you to stick your entire collection in the slideshow, relatively painlessly. While, the option to launch it in the image viewer, allows you to easily open one of those wallpapers for further processing (deletion, crop etc...).

I know you can script this with dcop. And you can also add a custom menu entry etc... But it seams a rather trivial feature to implement directly.

you can script these with these dcop commands

next wallpaper in the slideshow:
dcop kdesktop KBackgroundIface changeWallpaper

get current wallpaper
dcop kdesktop KBackgroundIface currentWallpaper "$virtualdesktop"

view it in the default viewer.
kfmclient exec "$wallpaper"

in control center you can add the new items in
a new menu
