    Hi folks,

    does anyone know if it's possible to automate the global shortcuts in Synapse 3?

    I have set up 3 different profiles with different performance settings that I want to trigger with scripts via Throttlestop.

    I have tried using several different pieces of keystroke automating software, however the shortcuts don't seem to trigger. The shortcuts work fine If I do them manually.

    Does anyone have any ideas?

    So it doesn't look like it's possible, but I was wondering if anyone can think of a workaround?

    What I currently have is Throttlestop set with an alarm that changes profile once either the GPU or CPU hit 80 degrees. This profile turns off turbo boost and increases the EPP in an attempt to cool the chips down.

    I have also set a performance profile in Synapse so that the GPU gets clocked down and the fans go to max.

    What I need to do is link these two actions so they happen automatically. Throttlestop has an option to trigger an app once a profile is selected, so I was using AutoHotkey to send a key sequence that would change the Synapse profile, however it appears Synapse have locked things down so that only a manual key combo can be sent via a synapse enabled keyboard.

    Anyone have any suggestions?
