Enable Quick Rotate Icon in the Traybar of the Today Screen

[Xdenwarrior]

I found lot's of those kind of programs or registry tweaks on xda-developers site, but non of them really work on a Dell Axim running WM5. The HTC Today Plugin works on my PDA, but does not install the rotation icon in the traybar, but rather a plugin for the the today screen that also features battery status, which i don't need, brightness control, and a comm manager, which is only used for the phones. This is really more of a waste. So can somebody find me just a quick rotate icon for the tray bar ( place, where you see the wlan and bluetooth icons) on my Axim that actually works?
Any help will be appreciated!

Ilauncher can do it. You can put control panel applets /like rotate screen/ to the shell tray tab.

Ilauncher ia whole program or a today screen plugin as well. I just want a simple rotate icon in the traybar with nothing else. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Well what I have done is re-assign my Record hard button on the left side of the Axim, to be Rotate Screen. works nicely if I am on a browser and can't see the Shell Tray on the Today Screen.

Get PHM PPC Power Toys and load it on your machine. Freeware.

PHM PPC Power Toys has PMH Keys and a TrayLaunch utility where you can load favorite programs and shortcuts. PHM Keys has a screen rotation shortcut that you can load into TrayLaunch
\Program Files\PHM Tools\Keys\Rotate.lnk

This should do the trick for you (or you can use Rotate Right.lnk, Rotate Left.lnk, or Rotate Reverse.lnk. They are all toggle switches and will return to standard rotation when hit the second time).

Celebrate!

I agree with you. I have the home button programed to so a screen rotate. Re-assigning a hard button works great.

A button is the way to go. The functionality is already built in and the "tray bar" is not always visible.
