[Bug 1405867] Re: Settings > Appearance > Wallpaper does not change wallpaper

 

Yes,  The menu is just fine, New Folder,  New Document, etc...Change Desktop Background.
 "Change Desktop Background" results in a window with Settings Appearance, 
however the background does not change even though a different background is selected.  

How do I get Systems Settings > Appearance > Wallpaper to change short
of re-booting?

Right clicking the desktop and selecting "Change Desktop Background"
didn't.

Anything else to try?
