In light of the ability to allow items to rotate in place when switching from portrait to landscape…

I think it would make sense to allow separate portrait/landscape positioning of items even when desktop is locked in portrait.

Is this feasible? At this point that’s all that is preventing a successful dual mode layout.

I think another way to achieve the desired effect would be an option to just lock wallpaper into portrait or landscape, even when desktop is not locked.

Edit:

That may be the most logical method, because really my main reason to lock in portrait is just to keep the wallpaper from screwing up. It’s hard to make a wallpaper that “works” on both portrait and landscape.

    Why don’t you use a live wallpaper that keeps the picture in portrait when the phone is in landscape. This is what I used:

    Well, this is about getting needed options in LLX, not adding apps.

    The reason of Chris Chastain to lock in portrait is one reason, but there may be other reasons as well. I think this is a good idea, though not so easy to implement, but I will give it a try.

    Pierre Hébert, I was afraid of that, but was hoping it would be a simple mod, since the launcher can apparently detect orientation even with screen orientation locked.
