I see rotation as an option under "settings, buttons" but not when I go to HButton. What file do I need to copy for a shortcut?

You can use Hbutton with PHM Keys (http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/Keys/) or Schaps Advanced Config (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070&highlight=Advanced+Config) to add this feature into Hbutton.

I just upgraded to Meschle's Touch 2.1 ROM that has the Schaps Advanced Config prog on it but I don't see an option for adding screen rotation to any other programs. How would I do that?

Hm, atm i'm using Vanilla 2, so i can't check this issue. Could be the shortcuts aren't there, just the config tool.
If you install by cab, there is a folder called "shortcuts" on your device (in Start Menu\Programs)...
Attached you can find a cab which only adds this shortcuts (deleted AdvancedConfig.exe from cab). Maybe you'll get it working this way ?

Thanks Peter, but it throws up this error. None of the shortcuts work from the folder :(

I gave up on the screen rotation thing. I got the folder with the shortcuts to work on the touch ROM but it just keeps rotating all the way around in a circle! And it's slow as heck.

But I've been trying to get the regular program to run to make some tweeks on the Premium Plus ROM, but it just won't run. I'll wait for the Premier ROM.

Don't mean to change the subject but how did you get your screen shot to post? I'm using the psc (screen capture) program and I always get a message saying the file is too big when I try to post it to this site. Don't how how to fix that. :confused:

Never mind. Had to change it to JPEG.

you just can create a shortcut to rotate: "\windows\advancedconfig.exe" /rotate right (or /left or /your-own-value)

Version 1 of the Adv Config Tool is working (0.9 kept crashing) and now the shortcuts you posted work. Thanks for your help.

The screen capture is part of My Mobiler (http://www.mtux.com/) a most excellent remote tool for the PC.
