Bug ID: 513954
Summary: Ability to Group Screens to Set Wallpapers
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.5.4
Reported In:
Platform: CachyOS
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Currently you can either set wallpapers per screen OR across all screens.
Setting across all screens is great if your screens are all the same resolution
and orientation. However in the case where you have three displays, two
landscape and one portrait this doesn't work as well.
For example, if you wanted your two landscape displays to have one wallpaper
slideshow, but the portrait display to have another, you currently can't do
that in KDE. Setting the two landscape ones to use the same slideshow is
haphazard and often doesn't sync up correctly since its timer based.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to Settings --> Wallpaper
2. Set your landscape wallpapers, then your portrait ones
OBSERVED RESULT
Have the slideshow play out at random, and now they're all mixed up across the
landscape screens
EXPECTED RESULT
I would expect the ability to set wallpapers for multiple monitors at once, or
to group them together and configure them at once. One simple idea I had was to
be able to Ctrl+Click on the screens you want to set wallpapers for since right
now you can only click one at a time.
