Description Marcel 2023-11-10 11:40:27 UTC

I am owning a 2-in-1 laptop which seems to not expose the folded state (aka. tablet-mode) through the linux kernel.
Therefore I have to enable/disable tablet-mode manually in the system settings every time I am using it in folded state.

As I am most certainly not the only owner of such a device I think it would be a nice usability feature being able to quickly toggle tablet-mode on/off of from the system tray (like it's already done with the on screen keyboard).

Therefore I'd like to propose adding such a feature to the system tray. I think it can/should be disabled by default but every owner of a 2-in-1 device which does not expose the folded state, can enable the feature thus switch more quickly and painless between tablet-mode on/off.

Thanks

Marcel
