Anyone knows how to make an action that set an image as a wallpaper background in the monitor?

Thanks a lot.

Maybe this could help or not, but if you bring your image into a browser object all you'd have to do is right-click on it and choose Set as Background.

You could also use Irfanview in command line mode to do this. The main Irfanview program is I think less than 500K.

You launch irfanview.exe and in the option/parameter field put:
c:\YOURIMAGENAME /wall=2 /killmesoftly

wall value 0= centered 1=tiled and 2=stretched

It works pretty well.

Info from bwpatric is clear for what you asked.

In case you meant to ask how to do that only for when an Opus pub is running, look here.
Publication Properties >>> Options... "surround". Image is a possibility (also its own Tab).

So that's 1 image. Static, once set. Is that what you want?

If you're trying to have User do something, or pub do something, to change it during Pub viewing... that's another story. Is this what you want?

Welcome to the Opus forum. Keep asking... and you'll find many possibilities for creating.
