[Suggestion] Show current profile

[Bukama]

Hey,
learned about the addon some weeks ago and really love it.
But still I miss a simple information, shown in the header (maybe next to the search box): The name of the current active profile.

Background: I set up different profiles for open worlds, m+ and raids and would like to see on a quick view which one is active on the character :)

Hello,
currently there's no concept of "current profile" in SAM. Since addons can change from outside my control, I can only guess if a profile is selected or not. And that guess can be wrong very easily; 2 profiles with the same set of addons would be indistinguishable, for example.
I'm not saying I won't implement it. But I'll need to find a nice way of doing it or a stronger reason for it.

Thank you for your response. I see the problem. Just two thoughts (I'm not into WOW addon development):

I guess the list of addons on a profile is somewhere stored. Can you compare it with the current list of addons? If its 100% identical profile found, else "No stored profile selected" could be shown. (at least that would be enough for me)

2 profiles with the same set of addons would be indistinguishable, for example.

I would think that a) not allowing to store two identical (not sure how to handle two profile which differ in one addon, that then gets deleted) and b) just pick the first (however "first" is defined) and maybe print a warning would be fine (again: at least for me)
