Hi 👋, I think that's not a Splash Cli issue. More specifically a wallpaper related issue.

Read below for more infos.

Answer by @sindresorhus in #48

When an app is fullscreen, it's technically in a separate "space". Settings the wallpaper for multiple spaces is not possible, see: sindresorhus/macos-wallpaper#4

Closing as this will need to be fixed by Apple.
