Description Michael Gebhart 2005-02-12 17:08:50 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
In xinerama-mode it is not possible to set a wallpaper for each screen
separately.  When setting a wallpaper it is stretched over all screens. 

Steps to reproduce:
1. activating xinerama mode
2. setting a wallpaper 
3. 


Actual results:
the wallpaper is stretched over all screens

Expected results:
It should be able to set a wallpaper for each screen separately. 

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
A possible extension of the background-properties dialog: Either a simple
combobox with the index of the screen, or a preview snapshot of each screen to
choose the screen. But there should be also a possibility to set the current
mode, that a wallpaper is stretched over all screens.
