Quick Start

This section will explain a basic procedure of making an image-list and start cycling. Only the very basics will be explained to get you started quickly. Layouts, effects, RSS news feeds, etc will not be covered here.

• First run the program. If the program is running, click the 'New' button () on the toolbar (to make sure the list is empty) or go to the 'File' menu and select 'New'. Now you should have an empty list.
• Use the "Wallpapers > Add Wallpaper > Add Folder Recursively" and select a folder on your hard disk containing wallpapers. When Wallpaper Cycler asks some options, just keep the defaults and click OK.
• Now, a few categories should have been created as you can see in the left tree in the main window.
• To setup the cycling options, choose "File > Document Settings".
• In the tree on the left of the Settings window, select "Wallpaper Cycling". On the right of the window, configure how you would like Wallpaper Cycler to cycle your images. When finished, click OK.
• To start cycling, just click the 'Start Cycling' button () on the toolbar or go to the 'Tools' menu and select 'Start Cycling'. The program should now begin cycling.
• You can always close the main window of Wallpaper Cycler. Wallpaper Cycler will keep running in the notification area which are the icons next to the clock of Windows.

You see, it isn't difficult to work with Wallpaper Cycler. Most of the features are rather straight forward and self-explaining. You can find out more about other features in this help-file or just play around with the program.
