Thunar not letting picture to be set as wallpaper [Solved] [Solved]

[danielson]

MX Fluxbox has a slew of nice wallpapers, but i like other images too.

Thunar is said to let you choose a picture and set it as wallpaper, but it isn't doing it for me.

won't work to set fluxbox wallpaper. the thunar function is specific to Xfce.

you can set a wallpaper with mx-idesktool IIRC.

You can add a custom action in Thunar as follows:

Thunar --> Edit --> Configure custom actions... and create a new action (hit the +sign ?)
then insert following values:
in 'Basic'
- Name: Set as wallpaper in Fluxbox
- Description: set background image
- command: feh --bg-scale %f
- Icon: Wallpaper
in 'Appearance Conditions':
- tick the 'Image Files' box

that should give you the possibility to set the image as wallpaper in fluxbox

@ceeslans - that it did, thank you!

Now if i could only find that option to set each monitor with separate ones...

Sorry, don't think fluxbox allows setting workspaces with different backgrounds...

Don't cry for me Argentina...!

Fluxbox is interesting but i don't think i'm quite ready for it yet.
Back to MX KDE official ed. for now.
