Saturn Desktop

Saturn Desktop Demo

Animates Windows desktop icons to orbit like Saturn's rings.

Requirements

  • Windows
  • Python 3.10+
  • A wallpaper with a planet in the center

Usage

  1. Right-click on desktop → View → Uncheck "Align icons to grid"

  2. Adjust the planet center coordinates in main.py:

    cx, cy = 920, 500  # Planet center on your screen

  3. Adjust the orbit size:

    a = 420   # Horizontal semi-axis (px)
b = 100   # Vertical semi-axis (px)

  4. Run the script:

    python main.py

Controls

  • Rotation speed changes based on mouse position
  • Closer to the center = slower rotation

Notes

  • The script automatically disables desktop "snap to grid"
  • Icons passing "behind" the planet are temporarily hidden
