Update: Re: I'm not entirely happy with patching 'compositor.qml'.......

So, I've worked out how to get away from patching, thanks to a hint from Schturman!

I'm thinking now it should be a switch in Settings, perhaps on the Ambience menu? or an entry of it's own, or perhaps in Display Settings?, any input or ideas appreciated!

Just in case any are wondering about animated ambience, there are a few caveats with my findings/creation so far, the main one being, I still haven't worked out a way to make ambience from a gif in Gallery - it just doesn't work, yet.

So, it's back to end users relying on creations from those who can make ambience (RPM) containing suitable gifs, in which case, I have no problem taking requests and I would also continually point others to Schturman's guide on Ambience & RPM, so they can create their own and more.

more to come, for those interested!

Any input is appreciated

Regards,

The two examples created are uploaded to Openrepos,
animated-matrix-code-theme & animated-cannabis-leaf-theme

I'm totally open to suggestions as to how to make this application better and more user friendly, just like changing current ambience.
