DESCRIPTION

15       Loads several random images, and displays them  flying  in  a  circular
16       formation.   The  circle changes speed and direction randomly, tilts on
17       its axis, and the images move in and out.
18
19       This program requires a good video card  capable  of  supporting  large
20       textures.
21
22       To  specify  the  directory  that  images are loaded from, run xscreen‐
23       saver-settings(1) and click on the "Advanced" tab.
24

OPTIONS

26       -visual visual
27               Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the  name  of  a
28               visual  class,  or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific
29               visual.
30
31       -window Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
32
33       -root   Draw on the root window.
34
35       -count int
36               How many images to display.  Default 7.
37
38       -zoom | -no-zoom
39               Whether the images should move in and out (toward and away from
40               the axis of rotation).  Default true.
41
42       -tilt XY | -no-tilt
43               Whether  the  axis  of  rotation should tilt, and how.  -tilt X
44               means that it will tilt toward and away from the viewer.  -tilt
45               Y  means that it will tilt to the left and right of the screen.
46               -tilt XY (the default) means it will do both.
47
48       -titles | -no-titles
49               Whether to display the file names of the images  beneath  them.
50               Default: yes.
51
52       -font font-name
53               The font to use for titles.  Note that the size of the font af‐
54               fects the clarity of the characters,  not  their  size  (it  is
55               auto-scaled.)
56
57       -duration seconds
58               Every duration seconds, one of the images will be replaced with
59               a new one.  Default 20 seconds.
60
61       -speed ratio
62               Speed up or slow down the animation.  0.5 means half as fast as
63               the default; 2.0 means twice as fast.
64
65       -delay number
66               Per-frame  delay,  in  microseconds.  Default: 20000 (0.02 sec‐
67               onds.).
68
69       -fps    Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
70
71       -debug  Prints debugging info to stderr.
72
73       -wireframe
74               Another debug mode.
