Managing Profiles

Profiles are the heart of Launchas. They allow you to save specific layouts for different tasks or monitor configurations.

Adding a Profile

1. Open the main Launchas window.
2. Click the + or Add Profile button in the sidebar.
3. Enter a descriptive name.

Capturing a Layout

The easiest way to set up a profile is to capture your current window arrangement:

1. Position your windows exactly where you want them.
2. Select your profile in the Launchas window.
3. Click Capture Layout.
4. The app will record the position, size, and display for each open window.

Manual Adjustments

You can fine-tune your profiles by adding or removing specific apps:

• Add App: Click the “Add App” button within a profile to include a new application.
• Remove App: Hover over an app in the list and click the delete icon.
• Update Position: Move a single window and click “Capture” again to update its position.
• Manual Editing: You can also manually edit the coordinates for precise control.

Display Environments

Launchas automatically detects your monitor setup.

• Active Environment: Shows which profile is currently optimized for your current display configuration (e.g., Laptop screen only vs. External 4K Monitor).
• Identify Displays: Click this to see a number overlay on each screen, helping you map windows to specific monitors.
