May you do this once again then copy all output after the command is executed and paste them here.

hi guy，try it.

Thank you Poloshiao and Cxbii for your replies. I tried your command line Cxbii suggestion first because it was easier but it made no changes. The Personalization window is a tiled display of all the possible background images. The options for selecting themes are missing.

I installed Gnome-tweaks to gain control over my fonts. It may be overriding settings. I will remove it and give Cxbii's suggestion another try.   

Thank you

Hi there,

I tried removing Tweak-tool but it made no difference. Here is the terminal readout after reinstalling:


thank you

I am having a similar problem where I can't make any sets of background themes in the personalization section (I can only select background present there). I also can't set any of my own personal images as backgrounds.

Right click and set as background or double clicking the theme and adding the picture doen't work?

Edit: Apparently the Theme selection was purged with the new update anyways. Or is it just me?

Regards

Yeah, I don't see anything for making themes. When I right click and set an image as a wallpaper, nothing happens.

Try as follows :
1. press ctrl + alt + F1
2. log in
3. sudo stop lightdm
4. sudo apt-get update
5. sudo apt-get upgrade
6. sudo rm -rf ~/.config/deepin-system-settings
7. sudo apt-get install --reinstall deepin-system-settings*
8. sudo apt-get install --reinstall lightdm
9. sudo start lightdm

If the problem still exists, change to another download server, then try once again.

First off, I tried what you suggested but nothing changed and I'm using an "official" copy. I don't know how to change servers and when I type "sudo rm -rf ~/.config/deepin-system-settings" nothing seems to be happening.

Now, I did find the place where I can change the background manually. Its not a perfect fix but its a start and identifies what the problem might be.

- First download and open "dconf Editor" to look at the guts of what is going on.
- Next, click on the left side -  com > deepin > dde > background to reach where the problem is happening
- While the "current-picture" looks right, if I go to "picture-uris" I see "file:///usr/share/deepin-system-settings/modules/individuation/backgrounds/1.jpg;;file:///home/myaccount/Pictures/Wallpapers/02%20(another%20copy).jpg"
- What is happening is that the deepin backgrounds are in place, and then if you try to set a non deepin background, the program is adding the filename on without erasing/replacing the old file name so it can't read the new file and thus defers to the current one
-If you erase the bad file name and put in your own file of choice, the background changes
-Furthermore, the set background then starts to work where it replaces one file after another BUT if you go back and use a deepin image, the problem comes back.

It seems some bugs.

I've confirmed that this is a problem to do with the recent updates. It seems like a deprecated file somewhere. I loaded DI 2013 on an other partition and I did nothing to it other than the updates. This confirmed for that the problem is with the updates.

Cheers
Platypus.

I can also confirm that the purge and reinstalling of deepin-system-settings as suggested by poloshiao doesn't fix the problem.

I can confirm changing the server makes no difference. It is a deprecated file for sure.
