Lanscape Vs Potrait - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I have an idea, is it possible to get 2 diffrent setting for our PPC, this idea come from we can have 2 diffrent wallpaper by using 3rd party apps. 1 on potrait and other in landscape.
And i wonder can we do the same with applications?? not just wallpaper??may be we can have Manilla 3D on potrait and Manila 2D in landscape??for example.
I know it's sound pintless but if we can have apps that control this, maybe we can later having 2 diff OS in 1 PPC , maybe WM7 OS on Landscape and Iphone OS on portait.
HAhaha... I hope some1 can have a developer inspiration breaktrough from my stupid and impossible idea hahhaa....
Good Day.....

sounds interesting...I'm sure a developer would have to modify the concept a little, but overall, something I'd like to see.

Bump! this would be great for those touchflo 3d/2d people who have landscape phones. A big complaint with touchflo is its lack of today screen plugin availability. Since touchflo isn't landscape, wouldnt it be great to be able to slide your keboard out so it goes into landscape and see your regular today screen?!?!?

Is it possible to have snapvue instead of quickmenu when landscape?

Snapvue displays perfectly in landscape on the raphael so i was wondering if any of the devs here could do this:-
Have tf3d when keyboard closed and when opened instead of displaying the quick menu (or whatever it's called) display snapvue.

I originally posted this in the diamond section based on screen rotation with the g-sensor but it didn't get much attention. Would be more useful on the pro though anyway.

it doesn't display properly in portrait unfortunately.
I'm gonna try an app that allows a second today screen and see if that will sort it.
to get it to switch any other way is well beyond me

sorry!!i means that the main touchflo 3d in touch diamond or pro in protrait mode can be do it in landscape after using this software or other stuff??
sorry..very very sorry.!!
No need to be sorry.
Just think you misunderstood what i was saying.
I want tf3d in portrait and snapvue in landscape.
They are 2 different today plugins/screens and i would like to be able to switch between them when i change the screen orientation.
ok..!!
but can the tf3d can be made in landscape mode??
thx
Possible to have snapvue in Portrait mode?
I'm testing SnapVue in Diamond. It works fine in Landscape mode. Faster and more informational than TF3D. Possible to have snapvue in Portrait mode?

Looking for a rom..... With landscape support

In a bit of a n00b when it comes to these sweet cooked roms. (my first decent phone in a while)
I currently have the Hyperdragon III rom on my Tilt now, And I LOVE it!! Great work man!
I have spent many a nights at work (network engineer) customizing it the way i like it.
But I am looking to find one that supports landscape as well, as that one gets wonky when in landscape mode.
Whats the best one for my tilt?
Thanks guys in advance.
What do you mean supports landscape? All devices support landscape.
Please, either post your request in that thread or go through the ROMs offered here and choose the one best to your likings.
I think he means which kaiser rom with Manilla 2D, that supports landscape.
Anyway, to answer your question, Solace 1.5 by Mbarvian has a landscape menu, but it takes a few seconds to kick in, and can take even longer when you close the keyboard because it has to re-launch TouchFlo.
Your other option is to edit your XML file(s) to better compensate for landscape. There are a few threads on how to do this. Since Manilla 2D does not support landscape at all, xml editing can't resolve every issue, its more of a workaround at best.

Have any of you completely ditched Touch Flo in favor of any other software?

I totally love touch flo but I am not sold that it is anything but eye candy and that other software overlays for WM6.1 might be better.
I was curious if there are people out there who have jettisoned touchflo in favor of something else, and what is that else?
Thanks for your opinions, input and software suggestions.
i go back and forth between wad and manilla
I googled WAD and was soured by what Google thinks I was referencing. )
What are you referencing? Manilla is TouchFlo right, but where does hte manilla come from? What is WAD?
WAD is Wisbar Advance Desktop, here you go:
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products/pocketpc/WisBarAdvanceDesktop/
There are a lot of nice skins for WAD.
ufufu got it for you
yes manilla is "touch flo"
manilla comes from htc but has been reverse engineered by some developers on xda.

i added wad to pda V10 and cant get it to work.. i disabled tf in today but wad still wont display weather etc..
its just a black screen
i really like the look of what wad is supposed to be..
any help is greatly appreciated
thanx
i see it the same way.. Manila2D/TF3D is good only for having your PDA look cool. it's not as useful as a PDA could get.
I set my UltimateLaunch to be as useful as i could using FEWidgets/Makecall (for speed dialing)/Rumball's weather/some internet icons and a networking plugin... and so forth.
..
How do you feel wisbar advanced desktop comapres to SPB pocket plus, do you have any experience?
Glad to hear I am not alone with tf3d not being the ultimate in work horses, I will look into ultimate launch.
by blank screen does it actually look like a blank screen, or does it look like there is nothing on your today screen. wisbar has to be completely designed by hand, or you have to download a theme file.
go here for a theme and tutorial i have put together.......

I have the same question and thoughts - perhaps WAD or SPB mobile shell would be a better fit b/c of the greater potential for customization. Can anyone comment on the memory usage / responsiveness between tf2d and WAD or tf2d and SPB mobile shell?
the opposite here. i used to have ultimateLaunch, but when Manila (TF3D) was born, ditched UL and now I am a happy manila user... love the changing themes every now and then, and everything else that comes with it, e.g. great graphics (rain animation is nice) and the close to no maintenance. manila is a little less flexibile the UL, but, pros overcome cons, for me at least.

What's with TF2D/manilla 2d and landscape?

Hey guys, i'm currently using TF2D on my Tilt and i have the landscape settings installed, made by btprice.
I've noticed that it is about 60% functional. However the messages, contacts, music, and email tabs all display nothing.
Pictures,home, and settings all display their tab but are not scaled and positioned for landscape mode.
Weather and programs tabs are completely functional. I haven't tried location though.
Now, i was thinking of fixing the images for landscape mode. but upon reading the forums a little bit more, i saw the diamond gold blend theme. the author stated that manilla2d will never be fully landscape. does anyone have an answer as to why this is?
I would really love to get TF2D in landscape, and i'm willing to help with the graphics. mbarvian's alternative(even though he did a great job) is just too slow for me.
thanks!

HD2 Rotation: Gyrator or HTCSensorConfig?

Curious to see what you guys think about the best way to manage rotation on the HD2. Looks like Gyrator has the smaller footprint of the two I list. Wondering how you guys manage rotation on screens that are not natively supported like the Today screen, and so on.
Bump. Anyone?
By far the best solution is imo changeScreen! Works similar as Gyrator but it is more light weighted and it is also very reliable.

Interesting. Didn't work for me, but Gyrator is spot on. Guess I'll stick with that. Thanks for the suggestion, though!
Have you set up your changeScreen-configuration? E.g. the Manila home screen is by default on the exception list because it does not work with ANY program to rotate Manila 2.5 correctly (in later Manila versions the rotation support comes natively). But just try it e.g. within the startmenu or within any filemanager - everything works brilliantly because lots programs support rotation natively - HTC just didn't implement a proper use of the g-sensor... don't ask me why...
Ok, just tried it again and it's working with pretty much everything I want it to rotate, but it seems that eWallet doesn't play nice with either ChangeScreen or Gyrator.
One thing I noticed is that Gyrator seems to be faster in responding to changes. Not a deal-breaker, but just wondering why.
Bump this up to the top. Did either ChangeScreen or Gyrator allow for 180* rotation in Portrait?
I'd love to be able to the HD2 in a cup holder while driving and have the charging port facing up.
