Owner
- Name: Luya Tshimbalanga
- Email: luyaATfedoraproject.org
Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 33

Detailed Description
Starting from Release 33, Fedora Workstation uses default animated background as a visual showcase. Spins and lab maintainers running on desktop environment unable to support animated wallpaper will be able to select a different frame from the default (and variant) background.
Benefit to Fedora
Fedora Workstation will showcase its animated background seamlessly as default.
Does this improve specific Spins or Editions?
Design Suite Labs, which is based from Workstation, and Fedora Silverblue will take advantage of its change. Other Spins and Labs will remains unaffected unless their respective maintainers wish to use the default animated background.
Scope
- Proposal owners:
Fedora Workstation needs a slight increase of its ISO file size in order to implement the animated backgrounds which are in PNG format. Each frame from animation will be selectable from the Background Settings.
