[Feature] Tray icon toggle between regular and gaming(performance) presets

[f242]

Most people probably have two presets: a regular one and a gaming(performance) one. It would be very convenient if you could cycle between the two modes by left-clicking the tray icon, and have the icon change color depending on the active preset.

You can? Not left click as that's for opening the program, but still fairly quick.

@Rem0o A single left-click does not open the program. In its current form, the presets seem quite hidden to me, and it would be much easier to immediately see which one is currently in use from the tray icon. I often forget to switch back to normal mode after I finish gaming. If the icon were red, for example, it would make things much simpler.

[Rem0o]

But how does that fit with the tray icons used a temperatures? The colors are already meant to distinguish which temp is what.

This would be fantastic if it was associated with running applications.

@Rem0o I didn’t think of that🤷🏻

[Rem0o]

@Hyporeal that's something I'm toying with. I'm just really scared about the tons of weird out of my control situations that will create. Like which process has priority, what if a process exit, which "process" do you fallback to? The previously launched? The most "important"? How do you classify such priorities? What happens when you manually load a config on top?

etc etc etc....

Many users will have many different answers to these questions as to how things should work.

@Rem0o A few keybindings for different configs are not an option ?

[Rem0o]

@Blacktempel it is, but you could do that with any program that does global key bindings using the CLI for FanControl.

ie: FanControl.exe -c whateverConfig.json
