Annoying default landscape orientation!!!

I like to use my TouchPad in landscape mode resting on my desk, propped up by the case with the speakers away from me (or towards the top). When I go go full screen video on youtube, it rotates upside down, and when I leave full screen or go to card view, the view remains upside down.
This is very annoying, webOS should detect that I am already in landscape mode and not force the screen to the default landscape mode of speakers to the bottom, making me rotate the TouchPad every time.
I believe this affects all the apps running in landscape mode (Angry Birds HD, TED, etc.). For example Angry Birds HD opens upside down. If you go to card view, TouchPad rotates back to my normal view with speakers away from me, however the Angry Birds card is upside down in relation to all other cards. TED opens in my current orientation, but when you click on Watch, the new card for the clips opens upside down.
Would love to have this fixed in the next update.
Thanks,
Co

your think it wouldnt be that hard for them to code in the speakers simply changing sides depending on orientation and just stopping the forced orientation.

Change Default Page Orientation

After fiddling a bit with the settings in Ambrosia's Easy Envelopes (http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/easyenvelopes/) I now find that that the default orientation on the printer dialog is always landscape.
How do I change the default page orientation on either the Standard or a saved preset from landscape to portrait? (Yes, for a saved preset I tried clicking on the portrait image and selected "save" but that didn't change what was selected the next time.)
Thank you for your time and attention.

I am not sure what the Ambrosia software set, but the page format information - scale, orientation, and paper size - aren't saved in the presets you mentioned or when saving a new preset.
You could try deleting the com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs.plist file from your home's Library/Preferences folder. Or you could use TextEdit to reset the orientation by bringing up the Page Setup dialog and changing the orientation to portrait and selecting Settings->Save as Default.
Hope this helps.

PDF with Portait and Landscape Orientation act differently between pages

Hi,
I have issue when I'm trying to have a landscape orientation in a PDF with another portrait page.
All I want to do is have a small page which indicates instructions on the form because it is a form builder, once the form is created by the user the landscape page gets hidden.
My issue here is that when I set a masterpage to landscape it makes it different to switch between pages.
I can't see more than 1 page at a time, just like it can't show a landscape and portait orientation together in the screen.
I have another form with landscape and portait together and it works fine, but this form doesn't stay normal... There must be something I'm missing...
It is annoying that I can't have more than one page in the screen, once I hit the bottom or the top of the page it switches automatically to the other page.
Please help me on this, I'm trying to figure out what is causing this bug..

Hi,
I haven't used form builder, but do you still have a viewState, try adding the following line in the docReady event of the form
event.target.viewState = { pageViewLayoutMode:2 };
This has the same effect as setting Enable Scrolling on the View ... Page Display menu.
A value of 1 would give you the single page view.

Cfreport landscape orientation?

Running ColdFusion 8. We're using the cfreport tag to bring up reports designed in coldfusion report builder. They were designed in landscape orientation. We have cfreport's format set to flashpaper. when the report is brought up on screen it shows in portrait and prints in portrait. if the cfreport format is changed to PDF, it gets brought up landscape and prints in landscape.
We want to be able to show reports in flashpaper, but have it in landscape orientation by default. Is this possible? Why does cfreport not have an orientation attribute like cfdocument has? Right now users will have to change the printing settings everytime to change it to landscape; this is quite a hassle. Why can't cfreports be set to landscape through code?
or, if they can, how can I do this? Thanks...

I suggest just creating another CFR with the other orientantion. If you created the CFR in landscape, and say you took full advantage of the width with where you placed all your elements, how could you expect all elements to fit when the orientation changes?

Duplex printing issues with landscape orientation

I have read through all of the previous questions, and can't seem to resolve my problem here.
I am using Acrobat 8 Professional (8.2.2). I have created a PDF from a Powerpoint presentation. I need to be able to send this to someone else and have them view it on screen with the correct orientation, and also duplex print it correctly, as all of our company printers default to duplex printing (to save paper). However, since the person who prints it is going to staple it in the upper left hand corner, it really needs to be duplexed to open along the left edge (the short edge of the paper).
When I first bring up the print screen the document has the incorrect orientation; i.e. it shows a thumbnail of an 8.5 x 11" page in portrait orientation, and my content is reduced in size to fit the 8.5 width. I think this is really the issue at hand--for some reason, even though the page is set up in Powerpoint as a 8.5x11 landscape oriented document, when it exports to the PDF format, that orientation doesn't hold.
Anyway, it seems that no matter what settings I try to adjust, it doesn't seem to work. I have toggled "Auto-Rotate and Center," I have toggled the duplex settings in the PDF document properties. I have toggled the duplex print settings on my printer driver between "Open to Left" and "Open to Top." None of it seems to make any difference in the final printout--basically what comes out of my printer is a document that is rotated to print out as if it was a portrait page, and is bound on the left edge (so each second page is printed upside down, when I am looking at it in landscape orientation).
The only work-arounds I can think of would be to rotate every other page in the PDF so that when it printed it printed correctly. However, then the PDF would not be readable on the screen. I could generate two separate versions of the PDF, one marked for print, and the other for viewing--but that is a real waste.
Does anyone have any suggestions here? I am looking for a way either to get the PDF software to "understand" that this document is a landscape document from the get-go (then it SHOULD work to duplex print correctly with the "Open to Left" setting), or maybe create a custom print setting for this document that allows me to rotate every other page as it is printed, but that doesn't rotate the pages on the screen.
I hope this is all clear...and that someone can offer some advice.
Thanks!
Melise
P.S. Just in case it makes any difference, I am running Windows XP Professional and am using the Microsoft Office 2007 software package. Because the company has multiple different printers throughout the company, I need a solution that will work without regards to the specific printer driver.

I am having the exact same issue. The setting of "Auto-Rotate and Center" has no affect.
Do I have to rotate the odd pages 180 so they are upside down in the PDF, but print correctly?

Landscape oriented PDF prints only in Portrait mode

I have a reporting application which displays to the user reports in PDF, some of them are in landscape orientation, but when the user prints the reports, they are fitted (shrunk) into a portrait orientation page. This is happening with Firefox 19 and the new embedded PDF viewer. Is there a way to resolve this problem?
Thanks!

I'm not asking for compensation I was making a point.
A lot of the modern world rely on the internet and the tools provided to access it.
A lot of company who have customers use the web to communicate or work with them, they sell applications or offer services based on the web technologies, they rely on the browsers used by their customers but can't impose them. So we rely on the seriousness of the browser regarding compliance to standards.
I always trusted Mozilla and Firefox to be leaders in this field.
I think that nonetheless the EULA we have right to have a compliant products so when a functionality replace without the will of the customer a working functionality it will 1) be compliant with the standard, 2) work as or better the element it replace. That is not the case with PDF.js.
A lot of browser users are not used with tweaking parameters or settings to get back to something which was working.
But be real PDF.js is not providing the services it's made for, it's a wor in progress ok! but it's a default feature, not a choice, and it breaks sites or applications functionalities that was working before it, that just my point. My PDF are working just fine with the acrobat reader plugin (for 3 years) and yes I'm upset because every thing was working and clients are now complaining that it does not work anymore. It's like with IE for ten years we are forced to find work arounds. The difference is that IE never worked like it should so we never trusted it but we trusted Firefox, which seems to be becoming less reliable.
Have I the power to easily switch all the applications users to a more PDF compliant browser I will.

How to set default print orientation in oracle reports 6i?

Why is it I can drag audio in landscape orientation but not in portrait orientation?

Why is it I can drag audio in landscape orientation but not in portrait orientation?

Because landscape is the default layout mode.
Portrait, which is book--optional, is for editing already added content, basically.

FaceTime default camera orientation

Is there a way to change the default camera orientation for facetime to landscape on my MacPro?
Something I could write in terminal maybe?
Cheers

Lars Hansen wrote: Is there a way to change the default camera orientation for facetime to landscape on my MacPro?...
Not that I know, Lars. FT is not scriptable, and its preferences file does not allow storing default orientation.
Lars Hansen wrote: ... Something I could write in terminal maybe?...
Even if I could find or write some Automator, AppleScript, or Terminal method to change orientation, I cannot imagine any that would be easier to execute than the "⌘R" that changes FaceTime's orientation to Landscape once a FaceTime connection is made.
You may want to join me and send your specific suggestion for this directly to Apple. Use Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback. You are unlikely to get a response, but you can be certain that the responsible Apple people will see your input for consideration in the FaceTime product development process.

CS4: How to set up landscape orientation doc with dual page setup vertical not horizontal

I'm an InDesign newbie and am trying to set up document presets for a landscape-oriented document that will have binding at the top and bottom edges of the page, not the default left and right edges. So when I open up my spread of pages 2 and 3 I want to see page 2 ABOVE page 3 not to the left of it.
I can't see any way to do this. Am I missing something or is this just not possible in InDesign CS4 (v6.0.6)?

The closest you can come out of the box is to set up a facing pages document using portrait orientation, then select the spreads in the Pages panel and Rotate Spread View 90 degrees Counter-Clockwise before you begin the layout.
This will allow you to work "as if" your pages were landscape and bound on the long edges, but things like x and y coordinates will be swapped bcause you are really still working on rotated pages.

X200t screen flickers when mouse moves off the right screen edge in secondary landscape orientation

I just got my 1st lenovo tablet pc (x200t multi-touch w7 32bit). However, my first experience is not so smooth.
I am having a screen flicker issue in secondary landscape mode (not the default landscape mode) whenever I move my mouse beyond the right edge of the screen. From the symptom, it seems like Windows 7 didn't stop the mouse from moving out of the screen, and hence Windows 7 tries to redraw everything from the top up to the cursor repeatitively (i.e. flickering)
In other orientation, the mouse is actually stopped before moving out of the screen because I can still see the edge of the cursor when I move to far right.
Does anyone know of a solution? If not, I would like to know if anyone else experience this issue. You can reproduce this by
1. rotation the screen orientation until buttons on the screen is at the top of the screen (i.e. the secondary landscape orientation)
2. move your move beyond the right edge of the screen.
3. screen starts to flicker

A single report can't combine portrait and landscape oriented pages

Post Author: joelo2
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi,
Can a single report in Crystal report XI (version 11.5.8.826) combine portriat and landscape oriented pages like Crystal report 2008? For example, I have one main report with several subreports in the main report. I want one subreport be in portrait page orientation and the other subreports in landscape. Can I do something like that in Crystal report XI version? I even tried writing a small .net program to do this, but it doesn't seem to allow me to do that programmatically either. Please help

CA Forum: Crystal Reports
I'd like to elevate this issue with Crystal Reports XI. There is a critical application which we developed in-house which needs both portrait and landscape orientation in each of the 30,000 plus documents we are sending out every month.If developers in Business Objects are picking this thread up - we need a patch for this limitation - quick. Right now, we are toying with the possibility of exporting the documents into a text format with markers indicating if a page is portrait or landscape. This is to be loaded into a Xerox machine (which costs hundreds of thousands of dollars), where it is mapped automatically to portrait or landscape. Note to Business Objects: This will provide us and countless others with much value. Think 80/20 rule - most bang for your development bucks and value for your customers!

How to read ibooks on landscape orientation one page at a time on iPhone 6 Plus

How can I force iPhone 6 Plus to show me only one page at the time on landscape orientation on iBooks. Right now it show me one page at the time if it is in portrait orientation but as soon as I turn the phone to landscape orientation it splits and shows me two pages ie page 1 and page 2.

I've looked everywhere I can think of to change the way that iBooks handles this and cannot find an option to change it. If you choose scrolling view then it will not show two columns but then you scroll to read rather than turning "pages."

How can I change one section of the document to a landscape orientation and not the whole document?

How can I change one section of the document to a landscape orientation and not the whole document?

Page Setup, including page orientation, is done in the File menu. The setting applies to the whole document. As Peter says, you can rotate the contents of a page (not including the text layer of a word processing document).
As an alternative, you could use Numbers, where Sheets are empty canvases onto which you may place images, charts, tables and text boxes, and where page orientation may be set for individual Sheets. The main tradeoff is that you lose many of the built-in word processing and page layout features of Pages.
