I'm not sure that I agree that the landscape mode should be triggered
by the accelerometer, but there certainly are use cases where
landscape mode makes more sense for the alarm notifications screen. I
thought someone had started a feature request to trigger landscape
mode when the phone is in a dock, but I can't seem to find it here now
(
http://code.google.com/p/kraigsandroid/issues/list). I think having
a setting to 'always use portrait', 'always use landscape', or 'use
landscape when docked' is a reasonable feature request, but I haven't
had much time to support this application lately. Feel free to start
a feature request on the project issues page if you like to add it to
the queue, but I can't guarantee any kind of time frame for now...
Thanks for your feedback,
Craig
