Note: There is a [[CSSU_Features_Configuration_Editor|GUI editor]] for enabling CSSU features. If you use that, you can ignore the editing and applying sections on this page and just refer to the features directly. '''You will still need to re-run the editor after each CSSU update'''.
-
To enable the CSSU features you have to edit a file (I use leafpad, but any editor works)
+
== camera-ui ==
 +
{{main|Community SSU/Features/Camera UI}}
-
The file to edit is transitions.ini and is in
+
== hildon-desktop ==
-
/usr/share/hildon-desktop/
+
{{main|Community SSU/Features/hildon-desktop}}
-
So the command is :
+
=== Zoom in/out support ===
-
leafpad /usr/share/hildon-desktop/transitions.ini
+
Use CTRL+SHIFT+S (+) and CTRL+SHIFT+F (-) to zoom in and out.
-
If you use a theme that has a custom transitions.ini file, it will override the one above, so check in /opt/usr/share/themes/[name of the theme you're using]/transitions.ini, if changing the transitions.ini file in the above path doesn't work.
+
=== Orientation lock ===
-
The CSSU tweaks have to be turned on at the end of the file one by one, where there is also a bit more documentation about them.
+
Install status-area-orientationlock-applet to add an applet that locks the landscape/portrait mode until you unlock it.
-
If you don't see an option there, you need to update the CSSU install (via the application manager).
+
== ke-recv ==
-
You can check which version you have using System, Settings, About Community SSU.
+
ke-recv controls various things like automounting
-
To apply the changes see the end of this page.

If you want to enable a blurless effect for the background when switching apps, you have to edit it like this

For the alternative rotation effect (spin in place rather than flip), set

zaxisrotation = 1

You can force all apps to (try to) autorotate with
+
-
 
+
-
forcerotation = 1
+
-
 
+
-
But this isn't likely to work well for all applications (yet).
+

About forced rotation:
+
-
 
+
-
There are two ways to invoke portrait viewing of an application.
+
-
 
+
-
1: Launch the application while holding the device in portrait mode.
+
-
 
+
-
2: Launch the application in landscape mode, rotate the device to portrait, then slide the keyboard open then closed.
+
-
 
+
-
Note: Non-auto rotating application seem to remember their orientation regardless of device orientation. To overcome this, load desired application, place the device in desired orientation and slide keyboard open then closed.
+
-
 
+
-
Status Menu also seems remembers devices last orientation and will continue to open in portrait mode until keyboard is opened and closed in landscape mode, or another application is used in landscape mode.

==Applying the changes to transitions.ini==
+
-
 
+
-
Some of these changes apply as soon as you save the file (which ? - TC), while other require you to restart hildon-desktop. You can do so by turning the phone off and on again, or running as root:
+
-
 
+
-
  killall hildon-desktop
+
-
 
+
-
This will kill the hildon-desktop process, and it will be automatically restarted with the changed settings loaded and applied. Be sure not to "killall hildon-desktop" too often in a row (like several times in one minute), or the system will restart (nothing dangerous, though - just an annoyance).

Note: There is a GUI editor for enabling CSSU features. If you use that, you can ignore the editing and applying sections on this page and just refer to the features directly. You will still need to re-run the editor after each CSSU update.
