Settings

Settings -> Appearance & Behaviour -> Background Image By Url

  • File with URLs: set file which contains URLs to images
  • Change every: set interval to change background every x seconds/minutes/hours/days
  • Change mode: set environment for change (if choose "both", then "Keep same image" will keep same image in both environments)

Alt text

Menu Items

View:

  • Set Background Image (set image properties : opacity/fill/anchor/flip ...)
  • Random Background Image
  • Random Order Reset (regenerate a new round of image order based on the last file path)
  • Clear Background Image (cancels "change every" interval)

Usage

  • Set file with URLs (each row in the file has to represent a single URL)
  • Optionally set "change every" interval
  • Optionally bind "Random Background Image" action to a hotkey
  • Optionally bind "Random Order Reset" action to a hotkey
  • Cycle background images while procrastinating

NOTE: to set background opacity or other image properties you can either do this in editor as usual or set it after URL using ',' delimiter in a file like this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4a/Puma_face.jpg/1280px-Puma_face.jpg,40 For example such row corresponds an image with 40% opacity.
