    @sdetweil That’s a thought. I think I can probably adapt the Dynamic Modules to allow for a config option to adjust based on orientation and that gets triggered at the ALL_MODULES_STARTED notification from the core.

    Let me fork that and see if I can make that work.

        @sdetweil Maybe. I find it easier to build on someone else’s code. After I have some basic stuff functioning, I’ll look for a module template to work from. I’m also not sure the dynamic module will work (it’s 7 years old) so it might need to be updated anyhow.

          @gonzonia all you need is a
          notificationReceived
          “DOM_OBJECTS_CREATED”
          if the width is greater than the height its landscape
          then loop thru the config

            @sdetweil I’m going to make it more dynamic. There’s actually screen.orientation.type that works to get landscape vs portrait
