Wallpaper by command line

Post by netzen »

Hi, I'm not sure if the question should belong here or on the "pcmanfm" section... please move it if necessary.

[Question]
By (first step) doing: pcmanfm --set-wallpaper /point-to-new-wallpaper, it change the configuration to the new wallpaper,
then, my question is: What is the most correct way to "refresh the desktop screen" (by command line) so that the
new wallpaper is then displayed.

And by (second step) doing: lxsession-logout, and choosing 'Logout', the new wallpaper is displayed after the new login. No problem here.

Is there a (most correct) way to completely change the picture and activate it by command line (without user intervention)?

Thanks all,
Valter
