Quick Config
Quick Config is a tiny always-on-screen config tab plus a pop-up switcher, so you can see and swap your whole setup without opening the main window — handy mid-game.
The floating config tab
A small floating tab shows the current config’s label (AppConfig.EffectiveConfigLabel). It’s a
separate top-most window, excluded from screen capture like the rest of PowerAim’s UI.
- Click the label to rename the active config inline (Enter to commit, Esc to cancel) — this sets
ConfigLabelon the config. - Click the tab to open the Quick Config switcher just beneath it.
The switcher
The switcher lists every config in bin\configs:
- The active config is highlighted (accent dot + bold).
- Click another to switch to it — the (heavy, UI-rebuilding) load is deferred until the pop-up closes, so the switch is smooth.
- Each row has a per-config keybind chip. It reuses the same binding as the Models & Configs
page (stored under the
CONFIGprefix + the file name), so setting it in either place updates the one shared hotkey. Pressing the key loads that config — even while Global Active is off (the config hotkeys deliberately ignore the Global-Active gate). Combos work here too — see Keybinds & Hotkeys. - A “Save current as…” row opens the normal save dialog.
The pop-up closes when it loses focus — except while you’re mid-recording a keybind (capturing a mouse-button binding moves focus off the window, which would otherwise dismiss it before the bind lands).
Tips
- Bind a key per config to flip between, say, a practice and a match setup instantly, without alt-tabbing — the same binds you may already have set on the Models & Configs page show up here.
- Label your configs from the tab so the floating label is meaningful at a glance (e.g. “CS2 – rifle”, “Apex – controller”).
- The config hotkeys ignore the Global-Active gate on purpose, so you can switch configs even when everything else is paused.
