I even have a usb numberpad tied to it so I have an extra 18 buttons to launch thing/tie stuff to. It would be real easy to tie your Switch one desktop right to an exotic keypress like ctrl+shift+alt+right and then tie that keypress to one of the codes at the top of your keyboard. I had evrouter set up in under 15min and have been adding events to it since. You can even have it use special settings for different windows. *shrug* Hope it helps, Matt
