Andreas Kling 3046b3467c DisplaySettings: Improve wallpaper preview code
Previously, this code would create a bitmap with the size of the screen
resolution, draw the new wallpaper into it, and then scale it down for
display inside the MonitorWidget.

This was done on every paint event, which made the code quite slow and
allocation-happy.

Instead of this, we now scale down the new wallpaper to a miniature
of the same scale as the little MonitorWidget screen. The miniature is
then used for tiling, etc. The miniature is cached and reused across
paint events if nothing else changes.

SerenityOS

Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.

Build status Fuzzing Status Discord

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.

I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.

Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.

I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
