Dual monitor and dual desktop multiple wallpapers problem
Hello there, I wanted to add more attention about a bug that is seems to be know, but not yet corrected. I'm talking about issues from here https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/can...
I've had the same behaviour, though not even sure whether to call it a bug or a design issue. Could do with a more proper wallpaper utility where you can see a mini-grid of all monitors in a row, then each virtual desktop on subsequent rows so you can pick wallpapers for each if you so desire, or entire rows or columns.
- Totally agree with that.
The only "bypass" right now is to delete every virtual desktop except one > change wallpapers on each screen > make new virtual desktop.
So it lets you only 2 choices:
- You can have different wallpapers on each VD but il will be the same on every monitor.
- You can have on each monitors a different wallpaper, but this configuration will be the same for all VD
So we are waiting for a way that you can configure each VD individually, and set a pair (or more) of wallpapers depending on the numbers of monitors.
TLDR;
If you have this configuration: 2 monitors (1 and 2) with 2 VD (A and B) you can:
- Either having wallpaper1 on monitor1 and 2 on VDA AND wallpaper2 on monitor1 and 2 on VDB
- OR having wallpaper1 on monitor 1 AND wallpaper 2 on monitor2 ON VDA and VDB
What is missing:
- Having wallpaper1 on monitor1 on VDA
- wallpaper2 on monitor2 on VDA
- wallpaper3 on monitor1 on VDB
- wallpaper4 on monitor2 on VDB
