Hi, Guys
Great job on all the different ROMS.
Is it possible to set the screen orientation for specific applications. ie stay in standard portrait mode, but say I open email or tom tom. I would like the screen to change to landscape automatically and when I exit the program the screen to revert back to portrait mode. If not does any one know of an app that can do this.
cheers
That has to be written into the application.
It used to be an option in Tomtom 5, but it was a feature that was removed for Tomtom 6.
Opera browser will landscape independantly of the OS.
Sadly developers have have starting thinking that as screen rotation is available from Windows, they don't need to add it to their applications.
I'm not aware of any extra application that would monitor other opening applications and switch the display accordingly.
thanks for the quick reply. Guess I will have to manually change before opening.
just find this:
wisbar advance 3
Features
Compatible with WM2003, WM2003SE, WM5 and WM6 touchscreen devices

I assigned the internet explorer button (bottom right) to "rotate screen".
thanks for the post,
Pete - seems to be the best solution without having to install extra apps. cheers
Hi,
Are there good freeware options for:
- Launcher (for home screen or otherwise). The MRU list is annoying and going through the entire start menu is cumbersome.
- Plucker reader.
Also, is there a way to turn off the keyboard backlight at times (for e.g. reading an ebook in the dark)?
Finally, any other good apps for wm standard or specifically for the dash? I've gone through the excalibur wiki so I'm already aware of the apps listed there.
Oh, one other question. Is there a way to assign 'Toggle Wifi' to a button, other than aebutton plus?
You can go to settings and power management I believe depending on what Rom you are using.
Here is link to plucker reader
http://www.plkr.org/
On plkr.org I cant find a link to a smartphone reader for plucker... only Pocket PC which would require a touch screen.
ok, i'm not getting a response in q&a, so, sorry if this is in the wrong section...
anyone know if it's possible to assign a shortcut to the softkey action
(ie. the softkeys are different in word to those on the today screen, can i assign a shortcut to that action)
i use a bluetooth keyboard which can be configured to any shortcut. it would be real handy to be able to just hit a couple of keys rather than reach for the devices tiny screen everytime i want to activate the menu.
cheers
or even just to have the pop up menu in word would be real handy
cheers
anyone!???
Hello,
I know that it's possible to add applications to whitelist for built-in screen rotation function in HTC Leo.
But this is very inconvenient. You need determine Class of application and then add it to registry...
Could anyone write a simple application, which could be mapped to hardware button. For example, when I use long button press - it automatically determines open (active) application window class and adds it to HTC Leo rotation whitelist. Second long press will remove this application from whitelist.
It will be very useful and convenient and no need to use external applications like Gyrator, because using built-in HTC abilities - is much better.
I'm sure this thing will be very popular and needed application.
Is anyone from developers interested in coding this idea ?
Hey guys,
So I have a lot of apps on my firestick in the Kodi media center. Most are in the videos > add-ons section. I wanted to see if there was an app available where you could put the apps in folders to organize them. Children, Movies, Sports, etc..
Trying to find some type of program or feature that lets me do that. I have seen screenshots online of people doing it, but wanted to see if anyone knew anything like that.
Thanks1
There used to be an add on called Super Favorites. Not sure if it's still active but if so it could accomplish this.
Otherwise, you have to use the basic functionality of a kodi skin. For example on aeon mq5/6 you can add an item to your main menu such as Streaming Addons and add all streaming Addons under that category by clicking the left arrow to get to the sub menu. Then repeat for different types you want to categorize by.

Thank you for input!
I downloaded both themes and couldn't find where that was at? I would click over to the sub menu but couldn't see any options to where I could add an item.
I would go within mq6 it runs far smoother. Do customize the menu, when on the home screen of the skin, slide over to settings and click the down arrow, then choose the first option, that lets you edit the menu.
Can't remember what the first option is titled though, something like "customize" somethingorother.
Edit
"Customize main menu"
