NAME
rotzoomer - animated rotations and scalings of portions of the screen

SYNOPSIS
rotzoomer [-display host:display.screen] [-move | -no-move] [-delay millisecs] [-duration secs] [-n count] [-shm | -no-shm] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual visual] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION
The rotzoomer program grabs an image, then picks rectangles and draws scaled and rotated animations of that section. The image that it manipulates will be grabbed from the portion of the screen underlying the window, or from the system's video input, or from a random file on disk, as indicated by the grabDesktopImages, grabVideoFrames, and chooseRandomImages options in the ~/.xscreensaver file; see xscreensaver-settings(1) for more details.

rotzoomer accepts the following options:

-window
    Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.

-root
    Draw on the root window.

-install
    Install a private colormap for the window.

-visual visual
    Specify which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.

-delay milliseconds
    How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation. Default 10, or about 1/100th second.

-duration seconds
    How long to run before loading a new image. Default 120 seconds.

-move
    Make the rectangles should wander around the screen.

-no-move
    Make the rectangles be stationary. This is the default.

-n count
    How many rectangles to animate simultaneously. Default 2.
