1 | hyprpaper |
hyprpaper is a fast, IPC-controlled wallpaper utility for Hyprland.
Configuration
The config file is located at ~/.config/hypr/hyprpaper.conf
. It is not
required.
Configuration is done using preload
, which loads an image into memory. Then,
the wallpaper
keyword is used to apply the preloaded image to your monitor(s):
preload = /home/me/amongus.png
wallpaper = DP-1,/home/me/amongus.png
For wallpaper keywords:
You can use unload
to unload preloaded images. You can also specify unload all
to unload all images or unload unused
to unload images that aren't being used.
To run hyprpaper at startup edit hyprland.conf
and add:
exec-once = hyprpaper
.
Misc options
