Fix Wallpaper image size

Open C0D3-M4513R opened this issue 4 years ago • 6 comments

If the image res was higher than the desktop res, only part of the image would be displayed.

Is there a way to make it detect vertical monitors and adapt the wallpaper settings? I implemented your changes and it works great except for vertical monitors. Example: vertical monitor

It looks like the image is only stretched. I this config can't and will never adept aspect ratio. If it would, it would most likely pick the wrong part of the picture. To fix this, I would suggest using a vertical wallpaper (preferably with the correct aspect ratio), rather than using a horizontal wallpaper If I think about it more closely, it is probably a feature somewhere, because when there are only small differences in aspect ratio, it will fix this. Not for something like this.

What this pr does, is to ignore the aspect ratio of the picture, because if you have higher res pictures on smaller monitors, it cropps. That is in my eyes not expected. So I have done this. Use a picture with the correct aspect ratio. This is intended. This is a FEATURE.

As for this pr getting merged soon: I think, it won't get merged for a few more months, since the author is probably not active anymore, and/or has abandoned this project.
