native resolution devices - lefty flip

Post by LurkerScum »

So, for us crazy left-handed people, playing ScummVM on a touchscreen device (SE P1i in my case) is a bit tiring. How about a lefty flip feature? This would of course rotate the screen 180 degrees, putting the keypad on the right-hand side during play.

I can't imagine it'd be that hard to implement, and my wrists would thank you in any way you desire.

Except that way.

Pervert.

Well I am not a lefty but I feel for you as this was the first thing I noticed when starting - no flip, and I right there spotted the problem for leftys

hopefully they will implement it

Mabe you could try the program RotateMe on your phone. It makes you able to flip your screen.

Still I guess that would not working as optimal as could be. I'm working on a flip landscape rendering in the SDL video part. So hopefully for the next official release it will be working (hopefully sooner than that too)
