Hello!
Is there a way to sync wallpaper change on both of my displays? I can only set each display separately. I have a folder with wallpapers that I like to rotate every 15 minutes, randomly. If I set it on one screen it doesnt affect the other and I dont see no option to set it on both screens. Im on KDE plasma, using Xorg…
I found this on bugs.kde.org (post 10):
Git commit 07a45c8db3ba2096ac65ff586c63acd20b475f7d by Fushan Wen, on behalf of Prajna Sariputra.

Pushed by fusionfuture into branch ‘master’.kcms/wallpaper: Add option to set the same wallpaper for all screens at once
Now that there is a centralized KCM for setting the wallpaper this seemed practical to do, so I gave it a go here. It just enumerates all screens using the same code as the
screenIdFromNamemethod and sets the wallpaper for each of them. I don’t have additional displays, so I’m just using the virtual screen created by the screen sharing portal for testing.
FIXED-IN: 6.0M +18 -1 kcms/wallpaper/ui/main.qml
M +35 -7 kcms/wallpaper/wallpapermodule.cpp
M +6 -0 kcms/wallpaper/wallpapermodule.h
Hope this is of some use! (I always prefer having different wallpapers per monitor so haven’t tested (yet); also the machine I’m on right now doesn’t have another display attached at present).
