If we're able to implement that in a future version, we'll definitely let you know :)

Thanks! ]]> RE: Saving / Reusing of created Wallpapers https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#8 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 10:00:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#8 DisplayFusion Hi, do you think this method could avoid unnecessary writes?

because in my opinion the wallpaper feature is actually really write intensive ;). Also if someone have just one merged wallpaper. cause it seems so that this image is often recreated by DF.

it is possible to save information about the monitor configuration and selected wallpaper into a txt file + the name of the created/merged wallpaper.

Then before a new wallpaper will be created/merged just check the actual monitorconfiguration, selected wallpapers and compare them with the txt file if in the txt file exist an entry DisplayFusion can use these image instead of creating this image again.

In the Settings > Advanced Settings window, just enable the "Wallpaper: Generate Smaller Files (lower quality)" option :) ]]> RE: Saving / Reusing of created Wallpapers https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#5 Thu, 05 Oct 2017 15:35:21 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#5 DisplayFusion Ok, thanks for the reply!

It is possible to deactivate the generation of the png image? ]]> RE: Saving / Reusing of created Wallpapers https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#4 Thu, 05 Oct 2017 14:16:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#4 DisplayFusion Thanks! I will put this on our list to investigate further.

Regarding the file size, we don't enable compression on the generated image because many people complained that the quality wasn't good enough :) ]]> RE: Saving / Reusing of created Wallpapers https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#3 Mon, 02 Oct 2017 16:07:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#3 DisplayFusion Hi,

yes I referring to these pictures.

And if possible could you explain me why are these files so large, the same image merged by myself is just 1.27MB big (jpg) compared to 4.12MB (Wallpaper_1)(jpg) and 16.6MB (Wallpaper_2)(png)?

thanks for your reply and best regards ]]> RE: Saving / Reusing of created Wallpapers https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#2 Mon, 02 Oct 2017 13:25:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9#2 DisplayFusion To clarify, are you referring to the "Wallpaper_1.png" and "Wallpaper_2.png" files that get created in %localappdata%\DisplayFusion? ]]> Saving / Reusing of created Wallpapers https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9 Wed, 27 Sep 2017 19:22:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/saving-reusing-of-created-wallpapers/?ID=5385dad9-cf0f-40ba-9e78-f2ffb7de43e9 DisplayFusion Hi,
it is possible that DF reuse created wallpapers in the temp folder?

So DF wouldn't need to create/merge the same images again and again and it would avoid writes on the SSD.
