Feature Request: Enhance Searchability of Bambu Studio on Desktop Platforms

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

This feature request is aimed at enhancing user experience by making it easier to locate and open Bambu Studio from different devices, particularly when switching from Makerworld on a laptop.

Describe the solution you'd like

• Option 1: Modify the Application Title - Include a distinctive keyword or the full name "Makerworld" in the application's title bar or within its visible metadata. This would help in:

  • Making the application more recognizable when multiple windows or applications are open.
  • Improving its discoverability through system-wide search functionalities.

• Option 2: Add a Searchable Tag - Implement a tag or keyword associated with Bambu Studio that can be picked up by desktop search features like:

  • CMD + Space on macOS for Spotlight search.
  • Windows key on Windows to quickly locate and launch the application.

Describe alternatives you've considered

• Custom Shortcut Creation: Users could manually create shortcuts or aliases, but this solution is less integrated and requires user initiative and technical know-how.
• Desktop Icon: Placing an icon on the desktop or dock/taskbar, although this doesn't leverage system search capabilities.

Additional Context

• The primary goal is to reduce the time and effort needed to switch between platforms or applications, making the workflow smoother for users who frequently alternate between Makerworld and Bambu Studio.
• This enhancement would particularly benefit users on macOS and Windows platforms, where quick search functionalities are commonly used to launch applications.

Alt+Tab is a common way to switch between Windows apps. If you have both apps open it will alternate between Studio and Makerworld very quickly.

"Include a distinctive keyword or the full name "Makerworld" in the application's title bar or within its visible metadata."
Alt+Tab , and the WIndows task bar, currently display "Project name- BambuStudio" for the app, and the title of the browser page, which will be "Makerworld" or the name of the model you are viewing.

"Windows key on Windows to quickly locate and launch the application." If I begin a search with a tap on my Windows key, and type just "s", Bambu Studio is 1 of 6 results. If I add a "t" it is the very first item listed. Same when searching for "ba". I don't know how that could be improved.

"Desktop Icon: Placing an icon on the desktop or dock/taskbar, although this doesn't leverage system search capabilities." Installation of Studio for Windows already places a shortcut on the desktop.
