Not sure if this is the best/easiest way... but if I'm understanding right... add the line below within the "View" section of the LAY file for the marquee in the games where the marquee is rotating when you don't want it to:

<orientation rotate="90" />

That should counteract the auto rotate, and put the marquee back where you want it.



RELAX and just have fun. Remember, it's all about the games.
