[android-developers] Re: 1.6 SDK Arrow keys (dpad/trackball) dir not changing with orientation?

2009-09-19 Thread polyclefsoftware

Yep, I noticed this too.

Very annoying when you're working on an app primarily in landscape
mode and using trackball/pad input.

Surely I'm not the only one that has noticed this?

 Just started testing my games in 1.6 and the first thing I notice is
 that on the landscape ones, the dpad up/down/left/right orientation
 doesn't switch 90 degrees like it did on all emulators before.

 The device trackball/dpad will still change with orientation (right
 becomes up on landscape, etc..), right?

 Anyone?

Yes. At least it does on real devices.

2009-09-16 Thread Robert Green

Is this a bug or do you think it was intentional?  It's just strange
because I'm hitting left/right to go up/down in menus when in
landscape.  I guess that's not a huge deal but it's really
disorienting when trying to develop and test games :/

I can definitely reproduce this. I have opened an issue on it, to better
track what's going on:
