How to quickly switch between signs in the Witcher 2? - View of Golf Playground Between Rows of Tall Trees

I am playing the Witcher 2 using a XBox360 controller and I find the way the switch between signs to be very clunky.

I have to press LR and then navigate to the sign, and ever so often it seems to lag and my selection jumps an entry too far for my intended sign, making the slowdown effect during the sign selection moot.

This is troublesome especially in the Kayran fight where I have to alternate between Quen and Yrden very often.

Is there a way I can quick switch between signs? It seems to be possible as there are two circles indicating sign places in the lower left HUD of which only my current selection shows up.

Is there a quick switch?

You can using the gamepad Options window accessable over the Witcher 2 Launcher:

It's not easy to remap though without causing conflicts, and there is not toggle but when you for example don't use bombs and throwable daggers, you could map RB a specific sign you are using often, e.g. Quen, and stick with the other selection.

Signs are magical glyphs which a Witcher or spell-caster may weave (or incant) to conjure a variety of effects. Some signs are used primarily in overt combat (for example, using Quen to protect oneself from injury) while others are used in non-combat roles (most notably Axii, for magical persuasion).
