Cocktail Orientation Problem
« on: October 13, 2013, 02:17:59 pm »
Hi all.

I'm in the process of making a cocktail for my wife for Xmas.  I'm making progress, but I've hit two snags.

First, I've created by own custom template which appears to work fine, with one exception.  On occasion a switch from Vertical to Horizontal orientation makes the template change to from mine to standard.mil.  Even if I delete standard.mil, Mala will recreate it and it will happen again.  I can't seem to make this go away.

Second, I cannot figure out how to make orientation detection work correctly.  I have Joysticks on the Vertical direction and a trackball and spinner in the horizontal.  I see how to make buttons and joystick trigger the orientation change, but I'm lost on how to configure the trackball or spinner to do this.  (I have the I-pacs and opti-pacs)

Any suggestions?

P.S. For those interested, I attached the template I made for her.
