Wallpapers

Meowrch provides a quick and simple way to manage wallpapers whether you use X11 or Wayland. This is the short guide to changing wallpapers on Linux in Meowrch.

Quick wallpaper switch

The primary method is the Rofi selector:

~/.local/bin/rofi-menus/wallpaper-selector.sh

The easiest way

Use the Super + W hotkey (see default hotkeys).

The set-wallpaper.sh command is a helper tool (use it when you want to apply a wallpaper by path):

~/.local/bin/set-wallpaper.sh </path/to/wallpaper.jpg>

It automatically chooses the right backend:

• feh for X11
• swww for Wayland

Re-apply the current wallpaper

The system stores a symlink to the active wallpaper,
so you can re-apply it with the --current flag:

~/.local/bin/set-wallpaper.sh --current

The current wallpaper link is located at:

~/.local/share/wallpapers/.current.wall

Add your own wallpapers

If you want to use your own wallpapers independently from themes,
just copy images into:

~/.local/share/wallpapers/
