Turning PDA screen 90degrees

newPDAX51V · 01-19-06, 04:54 PM

Hi there,

I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum but I'm new here!

I'm looking to see if i can rotate the screen around when you view a website, so you effectively see a wider screen.

Can anyone help??

Thanks for your time!

start --> settings --> system --> screen and then select the appropriate radio button setting. You can also map this functionality in start --> settings --> personal --> buttons. I assigned rotate screen to my button 5 because I find it more useful than the default voice notes.

Not only was the record button a nuisance, hit more often than not by mistake, works great to switch from portrait to landscape or back again!

I can't figure out how to do this - when I go to Start/Settings/Personal/Buttons, I don't have an option for changing the rotation of the screen in my list of programs. Is there something I'm missing?

You have to select

HTML Code:

<Rotate Screen>

option. Should be one of the top options.
