I have a Lenovo G25-10 NVIDIA G-SYNC Gaming Monitor. There is one DP port and one HDMI port. What I want to do is hook my Nintendo Switch to the HDMI port and then be able to switch inputs so I can play games and then go back to the DP port to do stuff on my computer. Is there a way to do this without having to unhook the Switch every time?

From the manual on page 2.3...

Like most monitors, there is an input switch on the monitor. The manual says this (see item 2):
