Description
Please add autorotate for WebOS. I would prefer the game to play on the HP Touchpad with home button on the left. This is due to my case that tilts the screen with this orientation. Thanks. Otherwise the port is excellent. Really good work!

The WebOS port was removed in ScummVM v2.2.0.

Have looked at this. In WebOS native JS applications, this should be fairly simple i.e. change window.PalmSystem.setWindowOrientation('left'); to window.PalmSystem.setWindowOrientation('free'); thus allowing autorotation and a bit of work to deal with redrawing screen.

However, our WebOS port uses the SDL built on top of the PDL, which allows C/C++ code to be used. Unfortunately the PDL API seems to only support fixed orientations: https://developer.palm.com/content/api/reference/pdk/pdl/pdl-set-orientation.html
And even then the SDL v1.2.X library doesn't seem to support this hence: https://developer.palm.com/distribution/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=6540
Overall, this looks like it is not possible without some major work.
