Add Change Control Center Profile - Output Binding

Description

*I have recently started using Helios with DCS and have been amazed at the functionality contained in it. I have added some functionality so that a Helios Profile can start another Helios Profile on an event (eg.button press). The reason I am using this is so that profiles can be setup without toggling/hiding objects (which befuddles me a bit) and I thought I would share my code as it might be of interest.

In Profile Editor, under [Bindings | Interfaces | Profile], this adds a new option of [change control center profile] which has a Static Value/Action Value of the Profile to change to.*

@finbarlay Thanks for submitting this request, as well as providing your code (maybe a PR would have been easier ;-) )
Typically, you would create your sub-profiles in separate panels in a single profile, and simply hide/unhide the panels. While I'm not sure about the pros/cons about switching to a new profile with this code (my main concern is the time it might take to load the new images), I do think that it is worth including your functionality in a future release of Helios.
Thanks again for offering your idea and code to the Helios Virtual Cockpit project.

@BlueFinBima Thanks for looking at this, let alone including it. I'm not familiar with C# or Git (my source code management skills started and ended with SourceSafe), but I'll look into Pull Requests for next time (I had to look up what PR meant) . 😆
