Fine for me spanned over two monitors (World extent 3580@1014) in Vista.
Note that there is a shorter message form for setting the background image:
World backgroundImage: (ImageReadWriter formFromFileNamed: 'pharoBackground.png') layout: #scaled
Alain, maybe we can have a setting in the setting broswer called "Wallpaper" or "Background picture" that opens a file dialog and let you choose the image from disk ? Then you evaluate this code ;) Cheers Mariano
Alternatively, as before, having a .jpg file in your image/changes directory with the name matching the theme name will load upon theme change (Watery 2.jpg for instance)

Hi folks. I re-try (yes, yes, I re-insist hahaha) to have a background
picture for the PharoDev 1.1. The last time I tried, we had a problem with the picture because in big screens instead of making it bigger, it put it several times, or it cut it. Now, thanks to Gary, it should work well.
So, if you are a lucky guy an have a big screen, can you please take the latests PharoCore 1.1 image, for example this:
https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/26995/PharoCore-1.1-11357-UNSTABLE....
How to test it ?
- Download this in the same directory where the .image is: https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/26996/pharoBackground.png
Then evaluate:
World backgroundMorph: ((UITheme builder newAlphaImage: (ImageReadWriter formFromFileNamed: 'pharoBackground.png') help: nil) autoSize: false; layout: #scaled; lock)
What to test ?
- You should stretch the pharo image, make it very big, and the background picture should stretch also together with the image. - If you notice a performance decrease with it (I don't think so) - If you like it or not. - If the resolution is good enough in big screens
Thanks!
Mariano
