Dexpot is a fantastic product, and I think the wallpaper clock integration in Dexpot is brilliant!
One feature request I would love to see is the ability to rotate the wallpaper clock on a timed basis, so for example you could switch to a different wallpaper clock every hour/4 hours/day/etc.
Yes, the interaction with the desktop customisation is potentially complicated, but I would be happy with having the same wallpaper clock on every desktop if the "rotate on a timer" option was applied - otherwise the normal (existing) options would apply (i.e. the option for a different wallpaper clock for each desktop).
If that's too difficult/complicated, perhaps amend the DexClock /Wallpaper Clock plugin executable to accept a "wallpaper clock" filename parameter - that way people could use a task scheduler and do the switching themselves.

Dexclock already does.

Hi Patrick
That's great, but what are the usage parameters?
I tried running:
but that's obviously wrong, as it does nothing. Just running "Wallpaper Clock.exe" doesn't give any usage details.

Re: DexClock/Wallpaper Clock Plugin
Exactly like that, but with Dexclock.exe (the standalone application, not the Dexpot plugin).
Re: DexClock/Wallpaper Clock Plugin
Aha! Smashing, it works.
Now I just need to write a shell script to do a random selection and apply it.
Is there any reason why this is not an option with the Dexpot Wallpaper Clock plugin?

Re: DexClock/Wallpaper Clock Plugin
I was particularly attracted to - the possibility to every desktop siting different folders. And the fact that the program remembers the spatial arrangement of the different folders.
Because each desktop for me - it's a project. Very convenient and comfortable to do.

Re: DexClock/Wallpaper Clock Plugin
Is it possible to have the dexclock plugin run a clock wallpaper on just one of my two monitors?
