Reliably set a wallpaper in i3
+1

Currently I set my wallpaper by having a call to feh in my i3 config. This does set the wallpaper, but it seems buggy. Whenever my monitor configuration changes, the wallpaper gets moved partially off screen, distorted (too big or small), and empty spaces appear in the corner of the screen. When I restart i3 (using the i3 restart
key combination) the wallpaper gets fixed (until next monitor change), probably because it relaunches feh.
Clearly this is something that can work because other DEs like KDE don't have this issue of wallpaper breaking when you change the screen configuration.
How can I make my set up work reliably, similar to these DEs? I don't have to use feh, it was just the first thing I tried.
