When the widgets are locked in Plasma, you are able to change the wallpaper with the desktop settings, so I think by coherence it should be able to change the wallpaper with dbus even if the widgets are locked. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217950 --- Comment #42 from David Edmundson --- Git commit 903cbfd7e267a4812a6ec222eb7e1b5dd775686f by David Edmundson. Committed on 03/05/2016 at 11:01. Pushed by davidedmundson into branch 'master'. Add method to run a script from DBus directly loadScriptInInteractiveConsole requires user interaction which blocks some purposes, like setting the desktop background from an app. This runs a given script directly from a passed string without any prompts.

[plasmashell] [Bug 217950] Ability to set desktop wallpaper via a dbus command
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217950 --- Comment #39 from Evan McLean --- Well, the patch[1] I have been using for the last few years ago is now no good as I've moved to Plasma 5. Until it is possible to do this via dbus again, I've found a workaround that is acceptable for my use, at least. Thought I would document it here in case anyone else finds it useful: 1. Go to Desktop Settings/Wallpaper for the screen. 2. Change Wallpaper Type to Slideshow. 3. Change timeout to a short value, I use ten seconds. 4. Add a folder that only contains the currently desired wallpaper image. Then, when you want to change wallpapers, delete the current image in the folder, and move/link[2] the new image. The new image should have a different file name to the previous one. For more than one screen, do this for each screen, each with its own folder. Have been using this technique seamlessly for a few weeks now from my wallpaper managing shell script[3]. [1] https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217950#c15 [2] Best not to copy the image. The move or linking is (effectively) an atomic operation, whereas the desktop my try to load an incomplete image file while it is being copied.
