any way we could get a profile switcher for when you launch games etc?

would be really cool if it was possible i.e link a .exe to a certain profile

Something we working on for a V5 update :)

i know theres something on gethub to do it but i cant work out how to make it work so not bothered with it 😂

I cant say when we're fully introducing this to the latest wootility but this is deff something thats being worked on

[hot osprey]

yeah i can wait rather it though the wootility than a 3rd party app like

obligatory linux support question :p

my take on things that could work:
small file (script like thingy prob) that switches profiles once by directly sending data to the keyboard (something along the lines of ~/.bin/wootingswitcher -p 1 switches the profile to the second one (0,1,2,3). So for a steam game it would be something like ~/.bin/wootingswitcher -p game; %command% ; ~/.bin/wootingswitcher -p main)
same but its a wrapper, so wootingswitcher -p game %command% will swap to the game profile when the game opens and swap back when the game closes
a daemon that scans every new process name, and if it meets a certain regex, it changes the profile depending on the regex, and if there is none it switches to the main profile
a daemon that looks for an envoriement variable, and when its changed it switches the keyboard to whatever the envar says

as someone who has a very minimalist system, i would really like to not have a bloated app that does everything, but rather small helper thingies that are exactly that, helpers. especially if they are used often

This daemon stuff you mentioned, it is being done by CoreCtl for switching CPU/GPU profiles when an application has launched ( https://gitlab.com/corectrl/corectrl ), here's the utility that shows the output of process launching or exiting at https://gitlab.com/corectrl/copes
