Hello DisplayFusion Developers,
at first a thank you for this cool program for a really affordable price!
I have a small question about the randomness, I read 2 old discussions about the randomness:
How does DF choose random wallpapers and
Random Wallpaper.
I read that you basically keep a list of the previously shown images in "WallpaperHistoryV4.db" and once there is no image available, which is not in the history, you clear the history and choose a new one.
My question is how does this work when having multiple wallpaper profiles?
For my Laptop I basically have 3 folders:
A_Presentation - 3 Images
B_Landscape - About 30 Images
C_AnimeAndGames - About 150 Images
And my Desktop Profiles are
1. Folder A
2. Folders A + B
3. Folders A + B + C
I switch between these profiles at least twice a day. I use 3 when I'm at home, 2 for university and 1 while holding presentations, which I do at least once a week. I have the feeling that when I switch to 3 I often see the same images after switching to it. Does the history get fully reset when I'm through all 3 images of profile 1? Or does it keep a seperate list for each profile and it's just a wrong feeling for me?
Could I resolve (decrease the effect of) this issue by changing Profile A to 1 fixed wallpaper (no randomness)?
Thanks in advance!

P.S. I recently just noticed the AdvancedSetting for the HistoryReset Timer, so my testing was before setting it up to 999. I couldn't see a previous value in the advanced settings tab. Maybe, if the default value is very low this could also explain the non-randomness I was experiencing.
