      <title><![CDATA[[1961] Different wallpapers on different monitors/workspace]]></title>

      <description><![CDATA[I've got two monitors, and right now if I use the wallpaper settings in gnome it stretches the wallpaper across the two monitors. It does this even for the default ubuntu wallpaper. This can look really bad depending on the image. In order to get around this I had to get two wallpaper images and join them into one large one with the GIMP and set that as my wallpaper.<br /><br />There should be a way in gnome to set a different wallpaper for each monitor.<br /><br />==== Merged with ideas of a similar scope: Different wallpapers on different workspace ===<br /><br />Many workspaces option in Linux allows you to separate your work, why not allow users to have different wallpapers on each workspace. This allows for easier identification of which workspace you are on.<br />When used with compiz-fusion you can rapidly switch between your workspaces and the different wallapaper will allow you to quickly recognise what desktop you are on.<br /><br />Currently this is natively available in KDE but not in Gnome. In Gnome you can't even let Compiz take over the wallpaper control because Nautilus doesn't allow for transparent backgrounds.<br /><br />Other solutions like Wallpapoz are slow and when switching between desktops it takes too long to switch WP.<br />
