Hi.

I've been tinkering for a while and found out a command that works, though I don't know if it will fit your needs.

Here you have a pair of examples for two different ambiences:

[nemo@Sailfish ~]$ dbus-send --session --dest=com.jolla.ambienced --type=method_call /com/jolla/ambienced com.jolla.ambienced.setAmbience string:"file:///usr/share/ambience/salamander/salamander.ambience"

Regards.

Thanks for the answer. Works great. I'm trying to change to a custom ambience, but I couldn't find the .ambience file. Any idea?

@Kromonos - your custom ambience are here; (devel-su required)

# /home/nemo/.local/share/system/privileged/Ambienced/ambienced.sqlite

ok, that's why I couldn't find the ambience files :D
How do I read out, which string was set? Maybe I can find a way, to set custom ambiences

@KromonosEDIT - I saved the ambienced.sqlite file to my PC and dropped it into Notepad, now it is in human readable form! :)

I have no idea how to interpret the sqlite file, sorry. I gave up and concentrated on /usr/share/ambience, as per a conversation here; https://together.jolla.com/question/36946/how-to-list-custom-ambiences/
