Preface

A single wallpaper will eventually become tiresome after being displayed on the desktop for a long time.

Therefore, I created a random wallpaper feature that uses API(https://t.alcy.cc/ycy) to fetch random wallpapers.

Github: God-2077/FloatingClock_Wallpaper

Steam workshop: 3758991075

Features

Digital clock with VanillaTilt 3D tilt effect
One-sentence quote display, manually refresh by clicking or pressing R key, supports automatic timed refresh
Wallpaper carousel mode (configurable URL list and interval)
Toggle decorative elements display/hide by double-clicking the clock
Entrance animation & transition effects
Supports Wallpaper Engine pause/resume: pauses will stop quotes and carousel after the current cycle completes, resumes will continue running normally

Workflow

Initialization

Delay initialization by 1 second after page load (setTimeout)
If Wallpaper Engine property change event triggers first, initialize earlier
Start clock, quote, and wallpaper modules at launch

Auto Refresh of Quotes

计时器开始 → 预加载下一句 → 计时器到期 → 切换句子 → [检查暂停]
  ├─ 未暂停 → 预加载 → 计时器开始 → 循环

                ↓ WE 恢复 (setPaused)
             预加载 → 计时器开始 → 切换 → [检查暂停] → 循环

Wallpaper Carousel

计时器开始 → 预加载下一张 → 计时器到期 → 淡入切换 → [检查暂停]
  ├─ 未暂停 → 预加载 → 计时器开始 → 循环

Pause / Resume

Paused by Wallpaper Engine's built-in setPaused event, no additional configuration needed
Pause does not immediately interrupt the current timing cycle, but stops after the current switch completes
Automatically resumes the timer upon restoration, continuing normal operation
