calibration settings option

Postby poppyandjules » January 2nd, 2011, 10:41 pm

Just bought my scroll today and have been trying to get it all set up. However some of the games seem to be displayed in portrait but the tilt responds in landscape (such as mario jump). I know not all games will work on the device but it got me to thinking that it might need calibrating. I know there is meant to be a calibration settings option but I can't see it. Is there something I need to do to display the option?

Thanks, and keep up the good work

I don't think that's a calibration issue, i just think some games are made like that, made to display on mobile phone screens rather than tablets. I could be wrong, but that's what I reckon is happening with some games.

Thanks st. I'm still puzzled on where the calibration option is though. Any ideas?

Calibration is not a menu in my "Settings" menu either, but considering I'm happy with the calibration it doesn't worry me yet :D

This is strange - it should be in there under 'Screen Calibration'

I have it on the setting menu - its the 10 one listed. make sure you are looking at the setting from the home screen and not when in a program otherwise you will see the settings for that programme.
