I'm looking for a program to rotate the screen, but I'd like to be able to tell it to rotate to what position (I.E. Rotate 90 or 180 etc), not by doing it in stages.
It must be a program, not a reg hack or anything else like that, because I wish to assign it to a keyboard shortcut using PQZ.
I have found a couple of programs that allow me to rotate the screen, but they won't allow me to rotate it farther that 1 turn at a time.
Any ideas please?

The device was designed to work on portrait.. so it will insist on going portrait.
You may ask vjay555 on this forum to write you a simple program that will force your device to stay on landscape. A very good developer.. he makes simple tools like that. He's a mod here.

Hello,
Is there a way (program or tool) to rotate the device screen with gestures?
I think any application that would do this would have a hard time telling between normal stylus use and a guesture.
But, its even easier to assign screen rotation to a button.

it is possible. you could install FTouch and assign the rotate.exe (somewhere in the /windows folder i think) to something like left -> right.
wktask has a gesture feature that can be mapped to screen rotate by moving left/down from the top right corner.
how complex a gesture??
You can certainly move one of your basic swipes in Touch Flo - but I have always thought that the way it is set up in HTCAlbum was quite cute. The idea that you draw a "c" on the screen and it rotates the album in that direction (or a backwards c rotating it the other way).
There was some work on more complex gesture regognition a few months back which might be able to be used to identify "rotate if I draw a C" type behaviour:

Yes, I think this will be the best way to rotate the screen. Gestures like left-right, right-left will be useless, because there is many other programs, with them. For example SPB Mobile shell, S2V, etc.
It might be just one gesture symbol that rotates the screen with 90 degrees more every time when it is drawed. Then will be possibility to use more complex symbols like 8 or Z.
try mortbuttons....i think for your purposes you will need to now the path of the rotate app, make a lnk file and ensure that the shortcut works and using VJbrisk you will be have an upward swipe gesture and be able to rotate the screen..to rotate back again im not too sure about..
Hope this helps
Wisbar Advanced Desktop will allow you to do that. The final was just released yesterday. You can map that as a script to an up, down, left, and right finger swipe.

Hi,
I would like to assign the long press on "Call button" to the Rotate screen option but I would like the landscape to be reverse (to the right) as I am right-handed and I would like the earphones plug to be the opposite way.
1) I created a shortcut with SKtools for a rotation of 270°.
--> the problem is that I needed another shortcut to put it back to portrait mode.
2) I then tried to use the SPB PocketPlus button mapping to "Rotate screen" which works really good as the same shortcut can toggle between portrait and landscape but only rotate screen to default landscape.
I look for a registry edit (maybe in HKLM/system/GDI/Rotation...) or other trick to change the default landscape to reverse landscape so that I can keep the Pocket+ button mapping
I know that AEBPlus is able to do that but I would like to save some RAM and also some money (AEBPlus is shareware)
Thank you for your help.
Try to use "Gyrator 2"... Work perfect on Touch HD. I supose that is fix your problem with screen orientation.

EDIT : rotate manually
Thank you for your advice.
I tried Gyrator2 (which is a really good software). I also tried MagicMobile and ChangeScreen applications but none of them enable me to rotate manually by pressing/holding a button (the call button for example).
My problem with the automatic rotation apps is when I want to answer a phone call (with the phone in my pocket) with the slide to answer of TF3D, the screen rotation mess up with my action...
It makes it difficult for me to answer as the slide area changes place...
The only reason I want to rotate my screen is in the "Programs Explorer" before launching iGO for it to be in landscape mode...
I liked that Tomtom could handle the rotation once the program is on.
It seems that with iGO, we have to rotate before launching the software or it will stay in portrait mode.
AEB+ will do this in its "free" non-registered mode.
I have it on the OK/back button with rotate 90 and then toggle back. It has a full range of rotate angles.
Try it - it is shareware but works almost 100% in "free" mode.
You are right. AEB+ solves my problem (and is a great aplication even the "free" part)
Thank you Cheesy Dave !
Can anybody help me out by telling me what I need to do to get tomtom navigator to rotate to landscape. I prefer not to use any third party apps such as flip-it or Gyrator2.
I know it's all about it to the whitelist in the GSensor reg settings but I'm not entirely sure. Tried a couple of things but not cracked it.
Thanks in advance.
hi i suggest you install one application called "Quick Menu"
that one is very cool to use. And it also has the function you need.
You can rotate the screen manually.(left/right)

Hopefully a remedy for this can be found. Id love to have TomTom in Landscape.
Any of the many rotating apps on this forum will let you rotate TomTom. I've used Gyrator and FlipIt and both did the job. There's also changeScreen, Gsen, and more.
By far the best solution would be to get Gyrator working, but you could use this online tool to create a custom TomTom menu with the rotate button in the menu. Take note that some newer functions cannot be added to these menus.
I personally used AE Button Plus to assign a double tap of Volume Up to Rotate Screen.
I just use changescreen. I also use it to rotate calculator. Its good to install it because it might come in handy in the future when you need to rotate more apps or games. I recommend changescreen for ease of use.
In windows, in Onkolog's Lite you can assign a long-press of the call button (leftmost touch sensitive button) to rotate screen.
Start>Settings>Buttons
I use this to rotate TomTom.
No other 3rd party software added.
I have been having a problem that, when using TomTom in Landscape, I get the Windows title bar showing on top of the TomTom screen. I have had suggestions that this is down to the use of rotation software (I am currently using ChangeScreen, which is great in every other respect).

Pretty much the same here, I used Total Commander to enable the rotation menu in the registry, then assigned it to call button long press.
I got severely fed up of the rotation apps that needed tons of configuration - then still didn't work.
I hate auto rotate on my Evo4g. Is there any app out there or way to make a gesture rotate the screen? I know there are tons of apps that will put a auto rotate toggle widget on the screen, but I have to hit that before I go into a program I would like to rotate, and the back off again when i am done with that program. Does anyone know of anything that will allow me to manually rotate the screen while in an application? I like how I could just hold down a button for a few seconds on my old windows phone and it would rotate the screen. It seems simple enough, but I can't find anything. It would be nice to hold the menu button on the evo down for a few seconds and have that rotate the screen....
