Dexcube multi/dual monitor wall/filmstrip animation

Postby munkywrench » 05.02.2014 04:33:28

Dexpot already does what I want. So this is a cherry on top feature.

Dexpot can manage multiple desktop wallpapers.
I made a dual monitor 3840x1080 wallpaper, and then I thought it would be slick if the filmstrip animation had a 15360x1080p (four desktops, dual 1080p monitors) wallpaper to work with. I created one and then split it into 8x 1920x1080 images.

Unfortunately, filmstrip and wall animations handle each monitor as if they were on their own, and not as an extended single workspace. So the effect I was looking for is not possible.

It would be neat if these animations took a screencap of both monitors, then stitched them together based on the monitor arrangement (in windows display configuration) and then played the animation as if they were one large monitor.

I only use filmstrip and I only slide my desktops horizontally.
In this way the left most edge of the next desktop would slide in from the right most edge of my physical monitors, and across both monitors before arriving at the left edge of my left monitor.

Then when I apply my tiled background images to each monitor on each desktop, they will appear as one continuous image.

Vanity feature, I know. But it would make my day brighter.
Thank you
