Description

This is hrev30824.

There are some details that are not yet perfect. :)

# When I invoke the Background add-on on an image file, the selected image is shown in the preference panel for the "Default Folder". Personally, I think this function is more often used for setting a workspace's background, so it may be more useful to set "Current Workspace" here instead.

# When changing from "Default folder" to "Current/All Workspaces", the image that invoked the Background panel is replaced with the current background image of the workspace. Keeping the invoking image is a better idea IMO.

# The "Default Folder" shows "backgroundTexture.tga" as image file. Too nerdy IMO, and what's the difference to selecting "None"? I guess... "none"?

# From an aesthetical POV, the "Preview" string above the monitor representation on the left should either have a few pixel distance to the monitor or, better IMO, forget the "Preview" sring altogether.

# I don't have a working widescreen resolution under Haiku, so I can't test this: does the preview monitor change aspect according to the workspace's resolution? It should.

# There's still ticket #1006, eliminating the Apply button.
