github WoozyMasta/Switchy 2.1.0
Release 2.1.0

10 hours ago

Added

  • Optional Ctrl plus switch key (ConvertWithCtrl): turn the current selection into the other configured layout, replace it, and switch input to that layout.
  • Letter-by-letter conversion between the two layouts; characters with no mapping are left as they are.
  • Sections ExcludeSwitch and ExcludeConvert in the config to disable switching or conversion in specific apps (by executable name).
  • Optional SmartCaps: the switch key alone can run the same conversion flow without Ctrl; conversion runs only when the clipboard text actually changes after copy, so a plain layout switch does not reuse an old clip; oversized clipboard text only triggers a layout switch.
  • Optional FallbackCycleHotkey: if the layout still does not apply, press the system "next input language" shortcut once (configurable variant).

Changed

  • Switching follows the focused control (including typical modal dialogs such as Save As), not only the top-level window.
  • The two layouts are told apart by the full keyboard layout identity, so two variants under one Windows language (for example QWERTY and Dvorak) are handled correctly.
  • The configuration file and paths are read as Unicode end to end.
