Two questions about gyrator:

1. Can you configure it to disable completely while the keyboard is open? If so, how?
2. How do you add applications (the list is fixed and the .ini file does not include paths)? I have several games (Experiment 13 for example) that get hosed up if you repeatedly rotate the screen.

hi, if you want to disable any app, just go to the event panel add a new one and then:
>Name it the way you want
>Select the app (Learn Class/Title, pull the stylus out, lauch your app and put the stylus back)
>Select the orientation you want it to be fixed in
>Don't check any stylus options
>Check Rotate screen on the actions panel
>Don't bother with the last panel

Apply and then check "Orientation" for the event (it'll be marked as 1 on the right)

Apply, you're done.

I never tried to disable the keyboard rotation.

Thank you SSh_Shama.

I wasn't concerned about the keyboard, but I wanted to disable other programs (mainly the dialer) from rotating. Gyrator is an excellent application, but I just couldn't understand how to get the events to work. Your explaination made more sense to me. Thanks again.
