hyprctl command doesn't change the wallpaper #157

Hi, Just checking out hyprpaper as an alternative to swww for my dotfiles.

Installed hyprpaper with sudo pacman -S hyprpaper

Setting up a wallpaper via hyprpaper.conf was successful.

preload = ~/wallpaper/hyprland.jpg
wallpaper = ,~/wallpaper/hyprland.jpg

Now, I want to change the wallpaper with hyprctl

#!/bin/bash
hyprctl hyprpaper preload "~/wallpaper/cyber.jpg"
hyprctl hyprpaper wallpaper ",~/wallpaper/cyber.jpg"

See two "OK" in the terminal but the wallpaper is not changing.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot in advance.

I believe this is fixed in git.

Will wait until the feature is available in pacman. I'm using the "killall hyprpaper, update hyprpaper.conf, hyprpaper &" workaround for now (which is working fine).

Thanks.
