wallpaperex's Issues

Natively support Autostart

Currently you have to manually setup Autostart for WallpaperEx as described in the README.md
In future this should be supported natively, ideally using a checkbox in the settings UI.

Pause rendering if Wallpaper is not visible

For performance reasons WallpaperEx should pause rendering (WebView) if a fullscreen application is detected on a certain screen.

  • Detect full screen applications
  • Pause WebView rendering

Support Mouse Input

Currently there is no support for mouse movement or mouse clicks on the desktop.
To support wallpapers with interactivities such as mouse tracking this needs to be added.

My first idea for this is to use a global mouse hook because we dont receive mouse events inside the form directly as it is a child of the drawer worker.

  • Try global mouse hook approach
  • Any other ideas?

Select Wallpaper per Screen

Currently WallpaperEx only supports changing the wallpapers of all screens at the same time.
In future it should be possible to set different wallpapers for each screen separately.

  • Create a UI to select a wallpaper for each screen separately
  • Make config support unique wallpaper per screen
  • Make a toggle for all screens / unique per screen

Restore Wallpaper on Explorer restart

If explorer.exe gets restarted, the wallpaper does not get restored and you either get a blank (black) background or the original static background.

WallpaperEx should detect an explorer restart and reattach the wallpapers.
