I have the desktop backgrounds of my three monitors (individually) set to rotate every 10 minutes. I'm able to know whenever this change is happening, because all of a sudden, AWM's features "stop working" -- e.g., I can no longer drag windows around with the keyboard/mouse shortcut. The background changing takes about 30-seconds, and sometimes freezes the machine a little bit, before the backgrounds are finally changed.

Once they're changed, AWM's features resume working again.

I'm currently using 8.1BETA2, but this has been happening for many versions now.

Please help, thanks.

Win7/Win8.1 Pro (x64)
AWM 8.3b2

Hello Steve,

Could you send me your configuration files (Actual Window Manager -> Tools -> Configuration -> Send to Tech Support) and a screenshot of the "Actual Window Manager -> Multipel Monitors -> Background" pane?

Could you specify what exactly keyboard/mouse shortcuts you are writing about?

Best regards.
