For what is the 2nd plain-mode useful?
--------------------------------------

RK can be arranged that a 2nd profile works like a 2nd plain for your main profile.
Therefor you have fast access to the dobbled quantity of RK-buttons.

If a 2nd plain profile is arranged (same quantity of buttons, same button and
window size as 1st plain) it can be switched on without changing the window position
of RK (this has a higher priority as the position setting which was made in
Profiles > Edit). If you click on a button of the 2nd plain it will automaticly
returned to the 1st plain.

To organize this option assign RK-buttons with following commands:

{/ME.PROF2.INC}: This will switch to the next profile as a 2nd plain profile.
{/ME.PROF2.DEC}: This will switch to the previous profile as a 2nd plain profile.
{/ME.PROF.BACK}: This should be placed on 2nd plain to return to 1st plain.

(Last command can also be used in other cases to return to the last shown profile.)
