Wallpaper Not Changing or Updating on First Desktop Only

Postby SasoriDama » 16.02.2013 23:24:45

Hi I am fairly new to Dexpot and have only been using it for two or so months. It is really a great piece of software. Every feature works excellently except that I cannot get the wallpaper for my first desktop to change to only a very specific picture, the one that I want. Basically I have 3 desktops and each one has its own picture assigned. 2 and 3 change when they are suppose to but the 1st desktop's wallaper always stays the same as the last wallpaper active. That is that if I switch from 2 to 1 then 2s will display. In the configure desktop screen the correct wallaper is displayed in the preview. When I try other wallpapers it works, but for the specific one I want it never does. I can verify that the image I am trying to use is a simple jpg that has worked on Dexpot before. It only stopped working once I tried to switch the wallpaper of a different desktop. If this is a known bug or if there is any fix - really any knowledge at all would be appreciated. Thanks!

:dex:

That particular JPEG file is most likely broken or incompatible in some way so that Windows can't load it as a wallpaper. Try converting the image to BMP or even just re-encode it as JPEG.
