Hi,

a friend had the following idea about portrait mode support for hildon home:

For each "landscape-desktop", hildon-home could have a second desktop where you can also place widgets as you need. This second ("portrait-desktop") is hidden in landscape mode and is only shown in portrait mode (-> the "landscape-desktop" gets hidden) and vice versa.

Maybe, the existing widgets can also be reused, we just need a second pair of coordinates where to display it. I'm not really into GTK/Hildon programming but AFAIK, GTK provides some kind of objects (thats why assume this).

What do you think?
