wbg $imgpath
wpg -ns $imgpath

The problem is that wayland doesn't do wallpapers the same, for instance, wallpapers that stretch across the screen only "work" by splitting them up in three parts and setting them individually. Some programs do this for you, like azote.

Probably out of scope for WPGTK to implement though. In the meantime, you could add it to your post-wpg.sh script.

This is how I do it under sway: bindsym $mod+Shift+w exec wpg -m && feh --bg-tile "$(< "${HOME}/.cache/wal/wal")" && cp $(cat ~/.cache/wal/wal) ~/.cache/wal/wal.jpg
