that can be accessed from the menubar now (or via the BTT menubar icon menu)

Ah. I use BTT without either turned on, which explains why I never found it.

You can just use the BTT menubar if you have the preferences open:

thanks for quick reply, actually im using script menu much, and using applescripts for toggle btt presets, its much faster compared to opening btt. thats a neat feature. it would be great if i can check updates with same way. thanks for your efforts
