"Override Wallpaper Image" Not working properly

[LGFE: TriMrDito]

As the tittle says, the "Override Wallpaper Image" setting isn't working as I suppose it should? (Changing the windows wallpaper with a still image based on the animated wallpaper i select within the program)

Navigating to C:\Users\[Myself]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Themes to see whether the expected image files are being generated or not, they are, and they're not black or anything strange, but the catch is: they only generate after I close and re-open wallpaper engine, instead of whenever the wallpaper changes

Say, I'm running wallpaper A, then I open the menu and change to wallpaper B, and watching the folder I see no new generated image for windows to set as the new still wallpaper, it's still A. But if I close the program, and open it again, then after a few seconds an image of B is generated, and windows goes and sets it as the new still image as it should.

This delayed switching also seems to occur when I toggle some other settings inside the app, like "Adjust windows color" and the likes, though I havent tested this too much

It's almost as if the generation of the image was kept on hold until wallpaper engine is told to alter something else or restart, I could really use some help here, I want to use these generated images to feed them into a rainmeter plugin so that some elements of my skin change color based on the average color of the image (if anyone reading this knows some other way of doing this, that'd also be welcome help)

Hey, could you check if you have the same issue on the latest beta?

Thanks for sending the log. The image also won't be updated while the wallpaper browser is open, so could this maybe be the reason?

If this is not it, could you maybe describe/confirm a minimal repro case?

So assuming the option is already enabled and you start the program, Wallpaper Engine will refresh the image a few seconds after launch. Now if you open the wallpaper browser, select another wallpaper and click OK to close it, it should refresh it again a few seconds later.

If you are doing it exactly like that, does the image update after launch work, but the other update doesn't work, or do maybe both not work or anything else?

oh my, sorry I didn't reply here, I didn't think steam actually allowed this post to exist, it told me my account needed some extra verification steps before doing posts and other things

also yeah it seems that was the problem! thanks for replying! just tested it out

funnily enough I found an even better solution to my rainmeter predicament which involved just letting the wallpapers alter window's accent color and then picking that up for the skins
