*) How to use the "Switch" button/keybinding:

e.g. maybe in order to have more FPS while raiding you want to reduce some graphics settings.

So you hit the button once. Now your current settings are saved and you have switched to a second setting.
Please note: The screen may flicker during this GX Restart.

Now you could reduce screen resolution, visibly range, effects or go to fullscreen mode etc. pp. and have more FPS.

When your raid is over you would like to switch back to your previous high quality settings.

Simply hit the switch button again and all your previous settings are restored.

You may bind a key for this too.

That's it
