AVD Screen orientation not changing with CTRL+F11 or CTRL+F12
- by Brad Hein
I run my app in the AVD emulator using eclipse but I'm unable to change the screen orientation in the AVD (Android 2.0 platform on the emulator).
When I press CONTROL+F11 or CONTROL+F12 on the keyboard, nothing happens. No messages are generated in the adb debuglog/logcat either when I press either hotkey.
According to http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/emulator.html these are the correct hotkeys to switch the emulator's screen orientation.
I tried it with my app, and with the messaging app. The hotkey has no affect in any case.
I'm running Fedora 12, Gnome. I checked my Keyboard Shortcuts in the System - Preferences menu, nothing's attached to either hotkey.
Same problem, 3 different PCs (all running Fedora Gnome).
