Ability to select "default" / boot up profile #237

It would be really nice to able to select into which profile the keyboards boots when powered on. Especially if you don't want your digital profile to be your default profile.

Well the idea of the digital one being the default is that you cant accidentally disable digital keys. So the likelihood of locking yourself out of your PC if it requires a password is reduced.

Out of curiosity, why don't you want the digital profile to be your default? The only thing the Analog Profile adds is gamepad buttons

Like @BigBrainAFK said, we prefer to boot into the Digital Profile to have the safest profile be your start point.

That being said, I'm not entirely opposed to have a lil thing to change the default profile, but I'd like to add it for the right reasons

I don't mind the default profile beeing digital, I just mind that I can't have more than one digital profile and can't pick, which one is the default profile.

I set up my esports profile as the digital profile and my desktop profile as the first analog profile. Now I can't change or migrate it, without setting everything again.

You can use any analog profile like a digital one by not mapping any gamepad stuff. That's the only real difference between the 2. You can also just make a temporary new profile (this appears in inactive profiles) and then drag that onto your digital or analog1 profile to switch them out. Drag the switched out profile onto the one that hasn't switched yet and then switch a last time to get the temporary one out of the onboard memory. So if we have D1, A1 and TMP you just go TMP->D1, D1->A1, A1->TMP and then you switched the places of A1 and D1 using a temporary profile to switch them around.

The fundamental thing is that the digital profile really is just an analog profile without gamepad configuration.

EDIT: We might also want to see if we dont allow swapping around the profile slots onboard.
