This is an export of the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop registry on my W7 x64 Home Laptop

as you can see "TileWallpaper"="0" and "WallpaperStyle"="4"

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

"ScreenSaveTimeOut"="240"

"SCRNSAVE.EXE"="C:\\Windows\\system32\\Bubbles.scr"

With a theme I get this:

"TileWallpaper"="0" and "WallpaperStyle"="6"

Here is some screen with the configuration used, so you can well see what happened on the system. As i said before the image is higher than the screen resolution.

No problem, right now i am studing for a good soluction, i can test your script too.

Nessie (or should I call you Loch?)

Screenshot 1 and 3 are correct (0-4 and 0-6)

Screenshot 4 is what you want to get (and that is different from what needs to be achieved) However, the image is truncated on the top and on the bottom, it still fits (read looks good) by coincidence. You will never have good results with all images of that size if this is what you want.

I'm not concerned about my name being there. Sorry to bombard you, but is there any reason you don't use the constant values? You have to understand not everyone looks around the UDFs or MSDN, so when they see these values, they simple copy them and learn nothing about what they actually mean.

Don't worry is always funny chat with you ;) I have just replaced the constant values only to drop the include of APIConstants.au3 that need WinAPIEx UDF to be downloaded. In that case there were only 3 constant to call, so i preferred to include them by my self.

Okay I understand that, but maybe add a single line comment next to it of the constant variable(s), just for readability purposes. Edited by guinness

This script was successfully tested on Win XP SP3 x86 and Win 7 SP1 x86, Win 7 x64 ;) By the way now the script seems to work very well. I am also trying to do a different wallpaper on each screen in case of a multidisplay station, right now i am reading all the _GDIPlus documentation... what a headcache ;)
