Help How can I keep the screen on.

[rdefino]

I would like to be able to keep the screen on when using certain apps like Waze, google maps, etc.... How can I do this without having to go to setting and change the timeout for the display?

Thanks

While I haven't tried any of them, there are a number of widgets that could do this:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sisedi.widgets.screentimeout&feature=search_result

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.chemdroid.screentimeouttoggle&feature=related_apps

https://market.android.com/details?id=at.abraxas.powerwidget.free&feature=related_apps

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tni.KeepScreenLite&feature=related_apps

Also, the application Tasker could be used to do this. I'm not a Tasker user, though I have tried it out in the past, and this seems like it's right up Tasker's alley.

Try one of the many free widgets in Android Market. It will put a button on your screen to goggle between what you have set and never.
