I have this problem where when i use my finger to slide the page up and down it selects things. HELP!?? Please & Thank You
I found this on another forum and I thought that HP's Touchsmart forum could use a bit of this information.
I did not write this, I am just sharing with this Forum.

For auto-rotation:
If you grab the MVSCActn.dll from earlier versions of the HP Quick Launch Buttons installations (for instance, version 6.40.12.2 L from this SoftPaq or version 6.3.5.1 from this direct download) and replace the new version in the Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\HP Quick Launch Buttons folder, you can get the screen to auto-rotate 90 degrees clockwise. Personally, I preferred the 180 degree auto-rotation of the tx2z because it didn't interrupt games like Microsoft Blackboard, Crayon Physics, or the TouchSmart software. If anyone knows which version of MVSCActn.dll (or which HP Quick Launch Buttons SoftPaq it belonged to) had 180 degree auto-rotation, let me know.
For those of you who install from a SoftPaq, you have to uninstall any version of the HP Quick Launch Buttons you have installed, install the one from the SoftPaq, copy the MVSCActn.dll file to somewhere else, uninstall the HP Quick Launch Buttons older version you just installed, reinstall the latest version, and then replace the MVSCActn.dll file with the one you copied. There may be a simpler way, but this way has always worked for me.
MVSCActn.dll (older file) - From User MeatLocker
Rotation Shortcuts
(From User E1000)
1st - Crtl + Alt + down ( + up to reflip)
2nd - On desktop right click -> graphics options -> rotate
Issue #3 Access to Brightness & Volume settings in Slate Mode.
Potential Fix: Pin Windows Mobility Center to the taskbar. (Brought up by Windows Key +X in Vista or Windows 7)
Issue #4 Rotate Button doesn't respond
Fix: Reinstall Quick Launch Button from SWSETUP folder or from HP TM2 Driver Site (direct link to QLB drivers):
Issue #5 180 degree rotation

Open RegEdit and go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\HP Quick Launch Buttons\Schemes\Default\8526
These are the two values that are important:
Notebook_Docked_DisplayOrientation = 0
Tablet_UnDocked_DisplayOrientation = 3
The options are:
0 - primary landscape
1 - seconday portrait
2 - seconday landscape
3 - primary portrait
I changed the second value (Tablet Undocked Display Orientation) to 2, exited RegEdit, and rebooted. Now when I go to tablet, my display rotates 180 degrees automatically.
Issue #6 Calibration
Fixes
For Pen (Taken From)
Quote:
If calibration is an issue for your stylus you must calibrate after temporarily turning off touch input - Go to the Device Manager [control panel (classic view)-system-hardware tab - Device Manager]. Go to the "human interface devices"...scroll to "touch panel driver". Right-click on it and select "Disable" in the context menu. Don't close out the Device Manager...you'll come back to it in a second.
Calibrate your stylus.
Go back to the Device Manager window, right-click on "touch panel driver" again and enable. Close everything.
For Touch

This will run the calibration tool with validation turned off and should allow you to calibrate.

This completely fixed the issue for me.

Thank you so much for posting this!!! I needed the auto-rotate feature and after several sessions of troubleshooting with HP support and sending the tablet in to get fixed.... this is what ultimately fixed it for me.
One other thing I fixed that I didn't see mentioned here was I really didn't like that the F1-F12 keys had to be used with the Fn key. I use the F keys a lot. There's a BIOS setting where you can make it so F1-F12 takes precedence over the HP functions. (sorry for the vagueness, I don't remember what the setting was specifically).
If I remember correctly, The f1-f12 keys default is toggled in the Bios. So tap esc, or del, or f2 or whatever it asks for when booting(Can't remember offhand) and in the bios menu, there will be an entry for the function key default.
