About BgRaster
assigns them directly to every Windows display. Inspired by Sysinternals BgInfo,
built for creative professionals: AV technicians, video engineers, and real-time
graphics specialists.
Highlights:
- One PNG per display, sized to its native resolution and anchored to its desktop position.
- Multiple layers: text, network adapter info, labeled edges, custom logos (SVG), alignment grids, crosshairs, and solid backgrounds.
- Format strings with ${tokens} for dynamic substitution and per-line size and color cycling.
- Slices to split any output into multiple regions, each with different settings.
- Short-lived and idempotent: runs until done then exits, skipping re-rendering when config, version, and hardware fingerprint all match.
- TOML-first configuration with CLI overrides, auto-seeding a config from defaults on first run.
- Portable single-file executable with no runtime dependencies, built for speed via NativeAOT compilation.
- Platforms
- Windows
- Licence
- Open source (MPL-2.0) — source code is public under an open-source licence; free to use, study and share.
