Title: Rotation Under Hentges
Post by: Storm on September 15, 2005, 04:44:49 pm

The default rotation for the apps I have seen is counter-clockwise. Apps that display in landscape rather than portrait seem to default to display with the keyboard and buttons on the left.

I am left-handed, which means that I would prefer the keypad on the right, so I can manage the stylus in my left. This makes a difference when doing things like playing prboom. Is there a way to change the rotation preference?

thanks,
--Storm

Settings>Appearance>Advanced>Rotation direction... works for the opie apps.

Some of the other apps can be changed with a command line option in the opie-sh scripts, however the few I was successful in changing seemed to slow them down a good bit.
