Terminal: Rolling background image like Windows Themes

Created on 10 Dec 2019  路  2Comments  路  Source: microsoft/terminal

Description of the new feature/enhancement

What about a set of rolling background images instead of a single one that Windows Terminal currently supports? Looking at the same background all the time gets boring.

I like Windows Themes w/ the desktop backgrounds slideshow feature. I download a theme and I get a set of rolling background images on my desktop. What about that same concept w/ Windows Terminal? Thoughts? 馃挱

Screenshot reference of Windows 10:

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

add a "backgroundImages" : [ "file1.jpg", "file2.jpg" ] property to profiles.

This isn't something we're likely to implement in version 1.0, but we would be willing to accept community contributions here. When we eventually have an extension model, this might make a good extension. Thanks!

Adding request for slowly panning big images; and option to configure a folder of images.
