Feature request: Dynamic Switching - Application Specific #16

Open ghost opened 7 years ago

ghost commented 7 years ago

Would it be possible to add the option to create and edit a list of applications and set whether it could use Integrated or Discrete graphics?

I envision the on/off option appearing under "Dynamic Switching" as, for example, "Dynamic Switching (Application Specific)". The list of approved applications would appear under the preference window panel.

It might not be possible to prevent an application from utilizing the Discrete card if the card is engaged by another application which is approved. In this case, would it be possible to allow only approved applications from turning on the Discrete in the first place.

Put another way: if the card is on - anyone can use it but only specific applications can turn it on. However, I believe only the approved apps having access is more desirable.

Thanks!
