Time of day options.
I have a question.
Why can't I select a specific time for the wallpapers in the playlist in the Time of day option?
For example: I have 2 wallpapers, I want the first wallpaper to show from 21:00 to 6:00, and the second from 6:00 to 21:00
Now I can only choose that the first wallpaper should show from 00:00 to 12:00, and the second from 12:00 to 00:00
So please add feature that I can select a specific time when wallpapers is displayed.

You can already do that. Make a playlist in the lower area of the installed tab and then click on the cogwheel icon to get into the playlist settings. Change the "Change wallpaper" setting to "Time of day" which will change the playlist configuration in the Installed tab so that you can configure the playlist on an hour-by-hour basis.

But can I do something like this? (https://imgur.com/2BlwevL)

Yes, you can simply add the wallpaper to the playlist twice and then move one of them to the beginning and one to the end of the playlist.

Is there a way to do that with profiles instead of the wallpaper? Dual monitor user and I have both the profile with Stretch Single Wallpaper and the profile with Wallpaper Per Display

Just figured out how to do this. Googling around and found this question, so even though it's months later, figured it might be helpful to anyone else.

How to create a playlist using presets in Wallpaper Engine

1. Customize and save your desired presets. (Bottom of wallpaper config ribbon, "Save")

2. In the "Installed" section, right click the desired wallpaper and click "Add to Playlist" as many times as you want different profiles cycled.

3. At the bottom, it should appear under "Playlist (x)." Right click one of the tiny thumbnails there, and select "Choose preset". Do this for every one as desired.

4. "Configure", and "Save"!

Hope this helps! :)
