About Screen Rotation

You should give an option for the screen rotation in tools for screen rotation. For this we have to go in setting and change it. Plz think about it. If we get it in tools we can do it very fast and it saves our time and ram.

What do you mean by tools? The option is located under Settings > Display > Auto-rotate screen.

  • IPhone 5, Is there a way to stop screen rotation for specific apps?

    The automatic screen rotation feature is useful - sometimes, and just plain annoying other times.  I prefer to read my e-mail in portrait mode, however the slightest movement or rotation while doing so will cause the screen to rotate (with the phone generally still in portrait position).  I then have to shake the phone to get it to rotate back.  This is very annoying.
    I would like to be able to lock the screen rotation for only a single app (e.g. mail) while still keeping it active for the camera, or videos.  Many of the book programs that I use, have this feature built-in, however this question is for apps that do not have this built-in.
    The built in rotation lock is all-or-nothing, and is generally a pain to use.  It adds another step to just about everything I do (If I read mail, then want to view a video, I have to go back and unlock it).
    Is there a way to lock the screen rotation for a specific app?

    I would have expected this function to be available in settings where the application specific settings are located.  (At least for the major applications like e-mail).

  • Screen Rotation on a B&W G3

    Hey everyone,
    I have a great Dell FP1901 Monitor that supports portrait mode (it swivels 90 degrees easily) and I've heard that Tiger supports it natively.
    Anyway, I have the latest version of Tiger: 10.4.8 and I still cannot get the screen rotation option. Does the typical video card on the B&W G3 not support screen rotation? I have the ATI Rage 128 or whatever is the normal card that comes with the B&W G3s.
    Let me know what I have to do - since this would be a feature I would get a TON of use out of, being a web designer.
    Thanks!
    Tim

    From what I understand the monitor has nothing to do with the rotation of the screen. For example my NEC Laptop running Windows XP can rotate the screen, as it can on my external 19" TFT Targa Visionary monitor. There is nothing special about either screen, or the drivers used (Plug & Play). The screen rotation is handled by the Intel graphics driver. The fact that you can easily physically rotate your screen is irrelevant to the way the graphics card draws to it.
    Now I think about it, Tiger supports screen rotation on some graphics cards. What does my NEC Laptop and some Macs have in common? An integrated Intel 9xx GMA graphics card.
    As Apple did not mention any specific monitor requirements on the page I already cited I would surmise from this that it is your graphics card that does not support the screen rotation and rather than being computationally expensive the rotation is handled by the graphics card (by simply changing the order it reads from it memory for conversion in the DAC).
    So to concur with your assumptions: 1. Your graphics card seems not to support screen rotation.
    I am unaware of a 3rd party PCI card based on the Intel 9xx GMA, nor do I know of a Mac compatible PCI ATI card which would allow you to rotate the screen in Tiger.
    Not that it helps with your particular setup but I would put money on your Dell monitor working perfectly with a shiny new Mac mini.
    Hope that helps.

  • Screen rotation not working in iso 5.0.1 ver

    Screen rotation is not working in ios 5.0.1 ver in ipad2 with 3g please help

    Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If so, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    If there isn't a lock symbol then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Ipad mini did update and now screen rotation is locked.. can this be fixed ?

  • N85 screen rotation problem

    I see a demo on Youtube about the N85 screen rotation, it shows the screen zooming in and out while rotating, but mine running on v11 only blanks out and comes back without zooming, can anyone tell me what firmware version has this effect, I still can't get any update on my RM-333 on NSU.

    Hi,
    I'm not sure in which version of firmware this effect turns available, but you'll have to turn it on. Find your way to were you change your theme, push the "option"-button and you can find the option "theme-effects" or alike. Turn it on and enjoy!
    Just as you know different themes got different effects; fading, zooming and so on. Try and you'll find out.

  • Screen rotation function stop to work.

    After Installing SP1 on Windows 7 machines, the screen rotation function seem to stop working.
    On Windows7 machines without SP1 it works fine, but on Win7 SP1 I can no longer use Ctrl+Alt+<arrowkey>

  • Screen Rotation on BBM

    And I hope that word "currently" is a hint looking forward to updates on this.

  • Spectre X360 Screen rotation

    Hi, I recently bought spectre X360 with windows 10, but the screen rotation is not working in tent and tablet mode.I have been trying to get a solution for this in display settings but Lock rotation of this display is ON and disabled. Therefore I cant even change it. Please let me know how to enable screen rotation. 

    I bought this laptop about 3 weeks ago. When running windows 8.1 the screen did rotate into portrait mode when turned, but only when the laptop was in the tablet formfactor. As long as the keyboard was still on, it would only flip 180 and not got into portrait mode.  Now that i am on win 10 i have the same issue as the OP. I applied the registry setting and the screen does rotate, but it does it in laptop and tablet mode (i am speaking of the physical mode, not the win 10 tablet mode). I dont like that it does it in laptop mode, but its better than nothing. I would like to see an official fix that also ungreyed the option as well.

  • Screen rotation software

    Hello, I'm a cstomer n fan of BB and I love the art they make. I use the torch 9850 and have a problem with it everytime I get in bed.when I use it the screen rotates automatically even though I don't want it to. I have searched for apps that help with this problem "stop tilt" but they don't offer u a permanent fix until you want to set it to automatically rotate. Can the software updates include a solution to this problem? Its annoying everytime I want to chat in bed as it flips. Pls embed an option in the software that does that.

    Well, I can argue the other side, since you force it... when you rotate the device, it is SUPPOSED to rotate the screen.
    I don't care about your iPhone comments. This is not an iPhone. For years the iPhone had no copy/paste function, do you think BlackBerry should have removed its copy/paste function to "get in line" with that piece of **bleep**?

  • Screen rotation not available (with rotation of tablet Hp Henvy x2)

    Hello, When I turn my screen 90 °, the monitor will not switch. it remains always in landscape mode instead of going in portrait. In Settings> System> Display the "lock the screen rotation" is disabled. Thanks

    Well, after searching every where, somewhere (not sure where now) I saw the suggestion to turn off bluetooth and NFC. I turned off both and it *seems* like the issue may be corrected. But what if I want touse a BT device, I guess I am stuck?
    As to your questions, I my have changed to a larger mouse cursor, either that or the default cursor. 
    I think I may have had "mouse trails" clicked, not sure if that it the same as a mouse shadow?  Neither ofthese options seem to make a difference.
    I had a standard Windows provided background for use, no personal photos. 
    Hopefully this partial fix (turning off the other settings) helps someone else. It seems to have fixed the problem for me, at least in the last 3-4 days since switching I have not noted a return of the problem.

    I wish I were writing with a fix.  I, too, have a new X2 -- I like it very much.  I have not seen what you describe.
    Instead, I have more questions;  I am intrigued.  I wonder if the way in which you have the system set is having an affect on the way it is behaving.
    Do you see the problem regardless of which mouse pointer you set? 
    There are a variety of choices -- I use an extra large white arrow most of the time; sometimes I switch to a black cursor just for grins.  You can change the selectors, too.  Right-Click on the Background Screen and click Personalize ...
    Are you using the entirely useless, but oh-so-pretty "mouse shadow"?
    I am wondering if changing the pointer has had any effect on the disappearing act.
    What about the background?  Are you using a personal photo?  Lots of colors?  Does changing the background make any difference?

  • Screen Rotation problem

    Hi, my screen rotate does not work. I tried everything but... I think that sensor does not work properly because it doesn't matter that auto rotate is on .HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM ???

    You may need to perform a software repair using PC companion.The process will erase all internal memory.You might need to charge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 60% battery.
    Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device).
    Open PC companion->support zone->phone/tablet software update->repair my phone/tablet blue highlighted.Follow the steps given,do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable. If PC companion does not start the repair process, you might need to run it in compatibility mode with Windows 7 (in some cases XP).
    All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us - J.R.R. Tolkien

  • HP Spectre x360 Battery Life/Screen Rotation/

    I bought the HP Spectre x360 (Intel Core i5, 256 GB) and the battery life is just horrible. I use it for about 30 minutes and already 10% is gone. I read reviews on this and saw it would give 12.5 hours. I expected it to be about 9-10 hours but im only getting half of that. Also, after I upgraded to Windows 10, my screeens don't rotate when I'm in tablet mode. Help?

    Ahmed and others, without doing too much digging, it appears that screen rotation in Windows 10, by default, can be enabled only in tablet mode. To get to tablet mode, open up the action centre, and the top left icon/button at the bottom of the screen is "Tablet mode". If it is a dark grey, then it is disabled. If you press it, it becomes a lighter grey and is enabled (you will also see a few different features in your taskbar). Once in tablet mode, you should be able to rotate the screen and Windows will correctly rotate the display for you. It does not seem to be as quick as it was in Windows 8.1. If it is not rotating, then try pressing the button labelled "Rotation lock" in the action centre. Hope that helps! On the battery side of things, I am getting decent hours out of my i7 model with the FHD screen. I can spend a day at work (school teacher) and come home with between 40 and 60% available. This would be after a good 5-6 hours of periodic use, sleeping in between, using the HP recommended power settings.
