Hi,

Thank you so much for creating this. It's to the point, simple and looks great :) I have a request, though. To switch fast, one can activate the dialogue with the shortcut keys, then select the prefered profile with the up/down keys and confirm.

I think it would be even easier when one could:

press the shortcut key-combo to make the dialogue appear;
the same key-combo again to cycle through the profiles
after a certain delay, the selected profile is activated and the dialogue disappears.

What do you think? Possibly create a config setting to select the prefered method?

Thanks in advance.

I'd like to modify this request to use PowerPlanSwitcher in multimonitor setup. Unfortunately, Windows shows System Tray only on the monitor marked as Main in Display Settings. Often people use different monitors for work and play in different rooms, hooked to the same PC. Switching Main monitor back-n-force is not an option. PowerPlanSwitcher should be accessible from any monitor hooked to the same PC:

allow adding shortcut keys for each Power Plan. They should work regardless of any monitor
alternatively, add PowerPlanSwitcher dropdown menu to Desktop Context Menu

Hi, thanks for all your suggestions. Due to various reasons (got a desktop PC I do most work at, school, work), I've stopped working on new features for PowerSwitcher. Should a critical issue arise I'll try to fix it but don't expect anything new.

I'll happily accept PR tho :).
