        @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.

          @gonzonia create your own module

          send the notifications when it matters

            @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
