Anyway noticed that in a Classic session toggling org.gnome.desktop.background On, then Off gives chosen background, picked from the r.click > Change background. (tweak-tool doesn't start
The first toggle lasts for about 10 sec.'s, the 2nd or possibly a 3rd lasts the session. A new login starts over on the Desktop folder, ect., ect.
This is with lightdm, didn't try gdm as of yet..
I am OK with the fact that it works with startx/xinit since that is my prefered way of working... Less resources, easier to control, ... I'll try Your bypass as soon as I start LightDM/GDM...
Update₁: Yes, it behaves just as You've described, I tried it in GDM, to have a complete set of tests (with Yours from LightDM...)...
At my place I did not change background switch but the one about showing desktop icons...
So
Code:
alias TB='gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons true && gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false'
does the job... Thank You for insight/hint...
