Does anyone know if there is a program to define your up and down keys and your left and right keys? If you are in portrait on your 5way nav then that is how they will work in rotation. I'm in portrait right now so when I go to landscape then the up key is the right key. I want to be able to set it so that when in landscape the up key (portrait left key) moves it up and not left. Any ideas __________________ Kevin Palm Zire 31 > Palm Zire 31(2nd) > Palm Zire 72s > Sharp Zaurus SL-C1000(Christmas Present) I Am 13, I got my first PDA when I was 11 Check out my MyPDA Courtisy of AximSite

The Prefs is the same, so the Handedness files and the Rotation Manager and Rotation Extension files are what's needed. However, after copying those over, I can now set the handedness, but Rotation died. Will keep trying. __________________ *Only slightly* mobile phone obsessed.** Apple iPhone 8GB/Sharp 903SH (Red, Euro), Sharp 904SH (Violet) Canuck PDA

Even though the screen is square, the unit isn't, so like firelord said, sometimes it's easier if the screen was sideways.

It's pretty good for the keyboard now, but yeah, sometimes I just want to watch movies sideways with the buttons aligned properly...heh

That's only good for watching movies/videos though... also I couldn't get Rotation1.2.3 trial to work on my Zire.... I tried it like long ago, and I don't remember what it was that didn't let me rotate. anyways, peace SiNA

Posts: 603	Personally I do use TCPMP for movies, but it's my brother's Palm, not mine; I would usually be using my T3 in Landscape mode. For Rotation, just install it, then go to Prefs and scroll all the way to the bottom and tap on Rotation. __________________ *Only slightly* mobile phone obsessed.** Apple iPhone 8GB/Sharp 903SH (Red, Euro), Sharp 904SH (Violet) Canuck PDA
