Different wallpaper for each homes screen APEX

Not sure what I am doing wrong because I've seen other people have success but I am running APEX launcher and I am trying to set a different wallpaper for each one of my homescreens and have them transition when I am sliding between the homescreens. I have tried
-multiple wallpaper
-wallpaper wizardrii
-fivewallpapers
-multipicture live wallpaper

and I cannot seem to get any of them to work. I can set the different wallpapers I am wanting in each one of the apps but when I slide between homescreens my wallpaper stays the same. I am guessing it is a setting or something I have messed up in APEX but I was wondering if anyone has idea what I am doing wrong. Thanks.
 
Multipicture Live Wallpaper can definitely do it, I was using that and Apex on my N7 until very recently.

It's been a while since I set it up, but what I did was put the pictures I wanted to use in a specific folder, then in MLP settings pointed the app to look at that folder.

How many homescreens do you have? I think I had an issue similar to yours but via MLP settings again, there's an option for home screen workaround. I just set that to the number of screens I had and it worked.

Are you also setting as a Live Wallpaper?
 
I have MPL setup right now where i have 3 screens setup and in screen1, 2, and 3 settings I have the image I want to use setup. I tried the workouts it was suggesting but none seemed to help. I think it could possible be a setting in my APEX setup.
 
Greetings kira,

MPL should do it just fine I use Apex and MPL.

Under apex settings...

1. Choose homescreen settings.
2. Scroll down until you see Wallpaper mode.
3. Make sure it's set to multiple screen scrolling.

In MPL...

1. Choose settings.

2. Depending on how you wish to do this, there are couple of options...

A. If you wish to have a random picture selected for each homescreen...

1. Choose the common settings option and then select either a folder or a album for the app to choose from.

2. You can choose to change pics with a double screen tap by checking this option in the main settings page of MPL.

3. You can also select to have the wallpaper change at a select time under the picture change interval selection of the main settings page.

B. If you wish to have a certain picture on each home page..

1. Press the plus sign on the add individual settings options of the main settings page.

2. This will show a number representing the home page you are creating options for.

3 . Press okay and now your main settings page will show a screen option for what ever screen number you just selected.

Example...

1. You choose the add individual settings and choose homepage 1.

2. In your main settings page of MPL you will now have a option for Screen 1 settings.

3. Select screen 1 settings and it will allow you to choose where to select your picture from.

Rinse and repeat these steps until you have selected all the homescreens you wish.

Back out of the main settings screen and select set wallpaper. Viola!

If you wish to remove individual screen selections...

1. Choose the selection for the homscreen you with to get rid of.. I.E

A. Screen 1 settings.
B. Choose picture source and select same as common settings.
C. Rinse and repeat for all individual homescreens you want removed.
D. Back out of settings and choose Set wallpaper. The individual homescreen options for those screen numbers will be gone.

Hope this helps
