xfdesktop-settings (part of xfce4-settings) - not able to change background folder from default /usr/share/xfce4/backdrops/

[kjur]

I'm not able to change background default folder in the xfdesktop-settings from default location /usr/share/xfce4/backdrops/ to something else.
I choose other location , but when open again it came back to default.

After choosing the directory I have to select also a picture (even if random wallpaper selection is enabled). Then the a directory change works fine.
So the bug can be closed.
SOLVED!
