Release Notes: This version hopefully works for different Boost releases (but hasn't been tested) and added a toggle to turn off notifications, which are on by default.


Release Notes: The ability to use a left click to change wallpaper was restored. libnotify support was added, so you can perform an action before the wallpaper changes. The preferences dialog was updated. Some contributed patches which fix some bugs were included. All of the code was reformatted in a uniform manner.


Release Notes: A crash on deletion of files with spaces in their path has been fixed. The search tool now returns to the start page on second run. The app icon from the preferences/search dialog is used. A few other changes.

Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy config errors
The configuration dialog triggers errors:
andrew@yoda:~$ wallpaper-tray
(wp_tray:6383): libglade-WARNING **: could not find signal handler 'on_button_close_pressed'.
(wp_tray:6383): libglade-WARNING **: could not find signal handler 'on_button_apply_pressed'.
(wp_tray:6383): libglade-WARNING **: could not find signal handler 'on_button_add_dir_pressed'.
(wp_tray:6383): libglade-WARNING **: could not find signal handler 'on_button_rem_dir_pressed'.
It is as if the buttons don't have any actions registered to them. This problem occurs with the Add, Remove, and even Close button.

I've been looking for something like this for a long time.
Thanks.

Homepage and Alternative
I'm unable to access the homepage, so I don't know what this package is like.
An alternative to this is change-background.py by Davyd Madeley of GNOME.
