Landscape mode with keyboard close

[senutan]

Well, i m looking how to get landscape mode without opening the keyboard... i think it could be interesting for all owners...

Who can help ?

how would you like to use this feature?
button on the today screen? or hardwarebutton?
have you checked the features in settings display.

the sdk should provide a method for this,
it was introduced with pocket pc 2003 second edition.

this should be the function:
you can set the lpDevMode into landscape mode.

LONG ChangeDisplaySettingsEx(
LPCTSTR lpszDeviceName,
LPDEVMODE lpDevMode,
HWND hwnd,
DWORD dwflags,
LPVOID lParam
);


I bet somebody has already written a simple application for this.

p.s.
i still didnt got my vox, so im only guessing.

A hardwarebutton may be the most usefull...

try this,
I only tested it with the wm6 emulator.
(it will rotate clockwise!)


unzip it and copy it on your device.

(its the example from the microsoft website:

good luck!

Fantastic, that's what i was looking for : T H A N K Y O U :) :)

I install it on my memory card, create a shortcut on the start menu and assign a shortnumber to action it, it's perfect :D

The fast way i find to get the portarit mode is to open and close the keybord.

Thank you again.

Ok great,
But how do you add a shortcut and shortnumber

Found it... Open the file browser through active sync and copied the shortcut to the "Windows/Start Menu", renamed it to the origianl name... done
