Use a dark transparent filter on 2nd homescreen

Hey,

I finally finished all my setup as I like it but I'm missing that last piece.
Is there such a program or function somewhere ? I'd really love to be able to apply a dark transparent filter on a specific homescreen (the number 2) while keeping the same static wallpaper (random rotation with Wallpaper Changer).

If you guys have any idea please help, that would make my setup PERFECT.

No but there are apps that works like night mode to your mobile device screen. I use one out of many to reduce blue light eye retina damage from prolonged visual contact with my mobile device screen. You can pick and choose which one suits your needs better. Blue light filter - screen Dimmer for Eyecare is the one I use

Also after doing a little digging around with this app I found that you can enable or disable it on any screen you are watching because it's running in your background and shows in your taskbar continuously until you totally turn it off.
 
I actually found a way to do exactly what I wanted, which is using the same static wallpaper on the 2 homescreen, but applying a dark filter on the 2nd.
Here is a screenshot of Homescreen 1 & Homescreen 2:

But the downside is, I can't use a folder with a set of wallpapers in a random rotation anymore, because if I do, it randomises both screen 1 & 2, so I end up with different wallpapers on 1 & 2. I can't seem to find a way to "link" 1 & 2 so they always get the same wallpaper and still be able to use that dark filter on the 2nd homescreen.

If you guys know a way to do that... That would be more than perfect lol. But I'm happy with the setup I have now, I guess I will just change the wallpaper manually when I want to instead of using a random rotation... It looks like that's the price to pay to be able to have that dark grey filter.

Oh and by the way, the program I use is "MultiPicture Live Wallpaper". A lot of nice features. If you guys want something similar, that's the way to go, I've tried tons of others, they all sucked.
