Add chapters for the top bar and its panels, screenshots and recording,
toggles/idle/screensaver, browsers, shell plugins, and networking, which
collects the Wi-Fi, DNS, firewall, and Tailscale material that was spread
across the FAQ, TUIs, and services chapters.

Fill smaller gaps in the existing chapters: user hooks, autostart, menu
extensions, printing, power profiles, factory reset, drive and user
passwords, passwordless sudo, firmware updates, display text size, and
the LocalSend share menu.

Backgrounds

Every theme ships with its own set of backgrounds, and you can add extras of your own in ~/.config/omarchy/backgrounds/[theme]. If you want to add an extra background image to, say, the nord theme, you just put the file in ~/.config/omarchy/backgrounds/nord.

You can do this most easily by going to Install > Style > Background in the Omarchy Menu. That'll bring up the folder where the backgrounds for that theme is stored. Hit Super + Shift + F to start another file manager, find your background, copy it over. Now it'll be included in the choices of backgrounds you can select between using Super + Ctrl + Space.

You can find a huge collection of cool curated backgrounds on https://github.com/dharmx/walls.
