When I run my LC stack on the Android emulator, it's upside down. Any thing
I can do about this other than create my stack upside down ;-)

Chipp,

The android emulator is probably the worst piece of software that I've ever
used. It is far easier and faster to just hook an android device to the
machine and press test.

Serious, that emulator is evil.

Monte's suggestion is the best one, but for those who prefer a more
mundane approach:

on preOpenStack
set the mobilAllowedOrientations to \
"portrait,portrait upside down,landscape left,landscape right"
end preOpenStack

Android 2.2 or lower does not allow some orientations even if you set
them all. You may have hit one of those cases.

It also might be that the simulator is opening upside down. Use the 7
and 8 keys on the numeric keypad to rotate it.

Thanks Jacque.

Yours didn't work but the script editor seemed to like:

mobilSetAllowedOrientations "portrait,portrait upside down,landscape
left,landscape right"

Even though I've made the changes, it didn't change the emulator.. :-(

Too true.

The worst thing is that I can't get any OS but 2.3 to work. All the
other AVDs open all black. I would like to see how my stuff looks on
ICS, but my real device doesn't run that, so my only choice is the
emulator -- but it doesn't work.
