Hi,

I'm writing a mobile guide application where the user can rotate the
map by degrees. So not only 90, 180, 270 degrees, but also 14, 29
etc....

Is there any way to do this on the Compact .NET framework??? I don't
want to use setPixel ofcourse because that makes it just way to slow.


Thanks.
 
The .NET Compact Framework version 2.0 supports screen rotation, but only
on devices running Windows Mobile version 5.0 (Magento). You will be able
to rotate the screen to 90, 180, and 270 but not anything in between.

To get the Visual Studio Beta 2, which contains .NET CF 2.0, go to:
http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/vs2005/

To get Windows Mobile 5.0, go to:

The .NETCF v2.0 screen rotation should also work on Pocket PC 2003 Second
Edition devices. And for .NETCF v1.0 you can use the
OpenNETCF.WindowsCE.Forms.SystemSettings.ScreenOrientation - which works
exactly the same as the .NETCF v2.0 version - www.opennetcf.org/sdf/
