Description
Description of the new feature / enhancement
Displaying input sources as icons, using this feature daily, it is a bit tedious to go into [...] every time I need to switch monitors.
Please remove the checkmark, as it isn't refreshed automatically. I can't see that checkmark when I'm on the other computer (not a Windows machine)
Scenario when this would be used?
Fast switching between monitor input sources

Research direction
Start by locating the PowerToys UI for switching monitor input sources and review how the current checkmark is displayed and refreshed. The work is complete when input sources are represented by icons, the checkmark is removed, and switching between monitor inputs is faster to use.
