Screen image display is upside down

I have a user with a Portege S100 who says that the image appears upside down - is this a facility or a problem? If a facility how does she return it to normal?
Thanks

As in the previous posting suggested the graphic card supports a NV rotate option.
I assume the user has changed the screen to inverted landscape (180 degree rotation)
As far as I know there is a key combination to change this option:
Ctrl + Shift + R

IPod display is upside down and mirror image - fixable?

The display on my mom's iPod display is upside down and mirror image. I can read the menus if I hold the iPod horizontal, and look into a mirror about six inches in front of my nose, but it's inconvenient.
I have tried the 5 R's (except for upgrading the Mac OS 10.3.9 - she has an 800 MHz G3 iBook and won't support Leopard). Apparently the songs all reloaded and play OK, but the display is hard to read without (and with!) the mirror.
I found a similar help request from last June, but no solution.

I have the same problem, have you found a solution.

Applet displaying text upside down

I'm writing a minesweeper game (though this is mostly irrelevant), and am at the stage where I am displaying strings in an applet. For some reason, the applet insists on displaying everything UPSIDE DOWN. I have no clue why it would do this, so I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions.
Here is the applet code (will supply more upon request):
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class MineFieldApplet extends Applet
    private static final int FIELD_SIZE = 10;
    private static final int NUM_MINES = 5;
    private final double XMAX = FIELD_SIZE - 1;
    private final double XMIN = 0;
    private final double YMAX = 0;
    private final double YMIN = -(FIELD_SIZE - 1);
    private MineField field;
    private Rectangle box;
    private static final int BOX_X = 0;
    private static final int BOX_Y = 0;
    private static final int BOX_WIDTH = 2;
    private static final int BOX_HEIGHT = 2;
    public MineFieldApplet()
        field = new MineField(FIELD_SIZE, NUM_MINES);
        class FieldListener implements MouseListener
         public void mousePressed(MouseEvent event)
             sweep(FIELD_SIZE - 1 - (int)event.getY(), FIELD_SIZE - 1 - (int)event.getX());
             repaint();
         public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent event) {}
         public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent event) {}
         public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent event) {}
         public void mouseExited(MouseEvent event) {}
        MouseListener listener = new FieldListener();
        addMouseListener(listener);
    public void sweep(int row, int column)
        field.sweep(row, column);
    public void paint(Graphics g)
        Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)g;
        double xscale = (getWidth() - 1.0) / (XMAX -XMIN);
        double yscale = (getHeight() - 1.0) / (YMIN -YMAX);
        g2.scale(xscale, yscale);
        g2.translate(-XMIN, -YMAX);
        g2.setStroke(new BasicStroke(0));
        g2.clearRect(0, 0, (int)XMAX, (int)YMAX);
        g2.setFont(new Font("Monospaced", Font.PLAIN, 1));
        g2.drawString(field.getString(0, 0), 1, 0);
}

If the y scale param is -ive every thing goes upside
down
if your x scale parm is -ive you get a mirror immage
so thats
it.I think I know why your y scale is -ive double
yscale =
(getHeight() - 1.0) / (YMIN -YMAX);
The numerator is obviously -ive since min - max <0Then why didn't it help when I suggested negating xScale and yScale?

Vision Builder for Automated Inspection: Image randomly appears upside down

Hi everyone,
I seem to be having a rather unusual problem here. I'm using an IDS UI-6280 camera to simply take a picture and log it to a file every minute. However, about 50% of the times when I start VBAI, the image appears upside down. The only solution I have found so far is to close VBAI and start it again. It usually takes a couple of tries before the image turn back up again, and then it's okay for the next couple of times I open VBAI. I have found no clues at all as to what could be causing this. Has anyone experienced something like this before?
Clarification:
- Once VBAI is running, the image does not flip randomly. If the first image is upside down, so are all the subsequent images. If the first image is upright, so are all the subsequent images. The flipping only seems to happen when I open VBAI.
- The flipping only seems to happen when I use VBAI. Using the IDS software always gives an upright image.
- There is about a 50-50 distribution between upside down and upright images. However, there seems to be some pattern in when the flipping occurs. I just opened and closed VBAI 10 times, the upside down and upright state occured in an order like this (x=upside down, 0=upright): x0xxx00000
Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated!

1. Does the camera have an attribute for flipping it? If it does, the camera may not handle this attribute well when VBAI sets this attribute in conjunction with the other attributes as fast as VBAI can when it is initializing the camera. Most cameras respond when they are done and ready for the next attribute to be set, but some cameras respond before the attribute is done being set and can get in a messed up state if another attribute is set too quickly. You could try using the Read/Write Attribute Step in VBAI to manually set the flip attribute off before you acquire (make sure to set the flag to always set this attribute even if the current value is the same as what it will set to).
2. If you acquire an image in MAX, is it upside down? Try Clicking on the camera in MAX, acquire, click to another camera or to another device (this will release the resources for the camera), click back on camera again in MAX and acquire again. Repeat this several times and see if you have the same flipping behavior as in VBAI.
3. If you create a new inspection with just an acquisition step, does it still happen? Make sure not to change any of the default attributes for this test case. This will ensure the VBAI step uses the same settings you would see in MAX.
4. What if you try using Snap Shot mode in the acquisition step instead of Immediate mode.
Hope this helps,
Brad

PP CS6 Media Browser displays thumbnails upside down

Hi,
I'm using a 2010 MacBook Pro 17" 3.06 GHz, 4GB RAM,
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M GT, OS 10.6.8 and PP CS6.02.
When I'm viewing stills in media browser, it's displaying many of the thumnails upside down and side ways.
Not sure what else to say about it or do.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Simon.

PP won't reorient stills that were taken with the camera turned on it's side for portrait shots, so I wonder if that's what you're seeing here. The shooter had the camera turned or even upside down at the time.

TS3274 The screen stays fixed in upside down poosition & won't swing around as I turn the iPad like it did when I first used it

The screen stays fixed upside down & does not swing round as I move the iPad like it did when I got it.

Check your side switch settings:

The 'graphic' shown in the Preferences Display is upside down.

Any thoughs on how it happened and how to correct it?
Cheers,

Yeah, i've been posting this error other places and no luck! hmmm....it's a head scratcher for sure. if I find the solution i'll post it here. i don't think it was like that after i first installed ML. if it was, it just didn't see it...just noticed it today after checking some settings.
cheers,

MY microphone doesn't work but it did work with other distros.
I have tried audacity and skype.
Alsa mixer-the microphone is unmuted.
The capture box it ticked,
input source = mic.
I have HDA NVIDIA.
How can I fix this?
I fixed the microphone problem, but my skype image is still upside down.

Sideways/Upside Down Text

I am looking for a way to display text upside down, and sideways. I am thinking there must be a way to flip an entire component - forinstance could you turn a JPanel 90 degrees?

Flipping (upside-down) the image on the iMac display

My imac G5 20" (no iSight) sits way too high on my desk.
I want to turn it upside down so the screen is lower.
Is there a way to inverse the screen display? 3rd party software, etc...?
Thanks

The foot is removable on the iMac G5 computers prior to the iSight version.
They did this so that you could install a wall-mount adapter.
But, if you do this, consider that you do need air-space under the iMac G5 for ventilation.
Probably your best bet would be to buy a wall-mount adapter from Apple, and then a Wall-Mount bracket from most electronics and home stores. Then you can set the height anywhere you want it.

My tecra images, are upside down!!!! I don't know what I did!!!

Guys, may be this is easy, but I never passed for this before. My Tecra A8-SP 4012; JUST SHOW THE DESKTOP, AND EVERY IMAGE ARE UP SIDE DOWN!!!!
WHAT I MUST DO TO GET THE RIGHT UPSIDE AGAIN!!????
THANKS!

You don't say what Operating System you are using. Assuming Windows 7 (and probably for earlier OS's also but I don't know), go to Start/Control Panel/Display/Adjust Resolution/In the "Video Orientation" box, click on the drop down arrow and choose "Landscape". It is probably now showing "Landscape Flipped".
You may also get there by simply right clicking on the desktop and choosing Screen Resolution and then do the above.

DSC-HX90V LCD panel shows images upside down

I bought the DSC-HX90V for my wife in late June, and we promptly took it on a three-week cruise and visit to Italy. The camera performed well, even in low light, and the telephoto worked phenomenally: Thanks to the 5-axis OIS, we were able to take 30X zoom images with exceptional clarity and no blurring (even when shooting distant ferries, containerships, etc. from the deck of a cruise ship). The viewfinder was a great convenience, and it was easier to use than we might have guessed (popping it up and flicking the back element of the finder out quickly became an instinctive process). But--and this is really weird--the camera developed a fluke after several days of use: the LCD began displaying images upside down, in both shooting and review modes. At first this happened sporadically, then it happened all the time, and finally--in the past few days--it reverted to displaying images correctly. Fortunately, there were two workarounds when the LCD was acting goofy: We could use use the viewfinder (which was immune from "upside down syndrome") or pull the bottom of the LCD panel out an eighth of an inch or so, which resulted in upside down giving way to right side up. I haven't yet called Sony's warranty service about this, but I'm guessing the problem is in the LCD's "selfie" position sensor. It would be great if it could be solved with a firmware update or system reset, but that's probably too much to hope for. In summary: Great camera, but with an annoying flaw that will need to be fixed.

Hello Imboden,
Sorry to know that you are experiencing this issue with your camera. Please try to reset the settings in the camera by pressing MENU then Setup then Setting Reset. You can also do a Power Reset by turning the camera off, removing the battery. Press and Hold the On/Off button for a minute and then release it and reinsert battery. Turn on the camera and test the LCD screen.
If the LCD panel still does not work properly, I would recommend sending the camera in to http://repair-camera.com/SonyRepairHome.aspx for evaluation and repairs.

Why does moving the mouse over an IMAQ image display slow the GUI down so much?

I have a large application with several vi's running simultaneously under labview 8.6.1. When I mouse over an image display control in one of the vi's, everything slows down a shocking amount in all the other vi's. The windows task manager does not show a large increase in CPU use. My pc is has a quad cpu with 4GB of RAM, and the CPU and memory loads do not appear to be terribly taxing to the system. However, many of my vi's apparently come almost to a standstill if I just move the mouse in a circle around my image control.
This looks like it is largely a GUI display issue. If I make a new vi and put a while loop in it that only displays the iteration loop number to an indicator, I can see the iterating occurring, then stopping totally when I mouse inside the image display control. When I stop moving the mouse inside the control, or when I move it outside the control, the interation loop number jumps up, as if it had been incrementing behind the scenes the whole time. So only display of the interating was halted.
This problem occurs even if the vi with the image control is not executing. If the vi with the image control is open but not running, and I mouse over the image on it, the other guis all come to a screeching halt.
Does mousing in the image display control really utterly crush all other guis in all other labview windows? Is this an issue inherent to the image display control? If so, is there anything I can do about this?
Also, this issue is not entirely limited to display. I started looking at it in greater detail because this issue also exposed what I think is a race condition in my code. I have a vi that acquires an image from a ccd and puts it into an IMAQ image.ctl. This image then gets passed up to a vi up the call chain, and is put on a queue and sent over to be de-queued by a vi that has the image display control. Here's the kicker: when I mouse over the image display control, the image successfully gets acquired inside the subvi, and if I probe the wire leading to the output IMAQ image display.ctl, I see the image. If I simultaneously probe the wire coming out of the subvi one level up the call chain, the image gets lost about half the time. This only happens if I am mousing in the image display control IN A TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND SEPARATE VI. If I bump up the priority of the ccd image acquisition vi to 'highest priority', the problem only happens about 1% of the time, and I really have to mouse around to make it happen. Still, it's disturbing that mousing in the GUI in one window results in a failure of a separate subvi to simply pass an image up the call chain. I understand that IMAQ images are referenced rather than passed by value, but I don't see why there should be a failure to pass the image up the call chain. I've looked for a race condition, but can't find one.

I have finally been able to replicate the behavior that you are seeing on another computer once the image was large enough. Here are a few notes about this behavior:
First. The UI only slows down when the images are large, 16 bit images. The reason why this is unique to 16 bit images is that they can only be displayed on the front panel as 8 bit images. The workaround that Weiyuan suggested to change the 16 bit display mapping hints towards the root of the problem...that any time a mouse runs over the indicator, Windows asks the entire image to re-draw (having a separate indicator overlapping the image will create the same behavior). With a 16 bit image, not only does the image have to re-draw on the screen but the 16 bit pixels need to be mapped to 8 bits. When setting the 16 bit display mapping to Full Dynamic, this requires mor computation/pixel than 90% dynamic or one of the other mapping schemes.
This is expected behavior if your program is running and you're trying to display a large 16 bit image. To fix this behavior there are a couple options:
Change the 16 bit display mapping to something other than full dynamic. You can choose which 8 bits to display or if you want to map the bits.
Resize the image just for viewing purposes on your front panel (since you aren't going to view every single pixel of you image on the screen). You can use the IMAQ Resample.vi to do this. This will allow you to take your 1500x1500 pixel image and only display a 500x500 pixel version.
If you are interested in viewing small details of the large image, consider just displaying a smaller region of interest at a time.
Let me know if any of these solutions work for you. Good luck on your application.

Edit in Photoshop opens images upside down

I'm using Lightroom 2.0 and PhotoShop CS3.
I'm on an Intel Mac running Leopard, with Lightroom 2.0 and Photoshop 10.0.1
I have a problem with opening images in Photoshop from Lightroom where those images were taken on a particular camera - a Fuji FinePix 9500.
Choosing Edit in Photoshop CS3 from the Lightroom Library module opens these images upside down.
Choosing Open as smart object in Photoshop also opens these images upside down.
The images are DNG files but trying the same action with the original RAW files displays the same problem.
Opening the same files directly into Photoshop CS3 displays the images correctly.
Opening the same files from Bridge CS3 displays the images correctly
Opening the same files from Lightroom version 1 displayed the images correctly.
Opening files from an older Fuji FinePix 4900 open correctly in Photoshop.
In Lightroom itself, the thumbnails, loupe views and slideshow images are all oriented correctly.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
David Wood

Probably the same bug that opens my D70 images rotated 90 degrees. No problems with my other cameras, only the D70. Adobe know about it, but it would be worth logging your bug on their report form:-

Imported images upside down and blurred Lightroom 1.4

Hiya everyone. First post on here so I hope I am putting this in the right place but hope you can help me. I have had a trawl through the archives but havent seen a fix for this problem.
When I try to import images direct from my camera (Canon EOS 30D)into Lightroom, they have started to be displayed on the IMPORT page upside down and very poor quality. If I go ahead with the import they are displayed in LR proper in the correct orientation and clear quality.
I have done a system restore back to a few days ago when it was working ok, and have tried uninstall and then reinstall. I have also taken my camera back to its default settings in case that is the cause, but nothing has worked.
I am using the following -
Lightroom 1.4
Dell Studio 1535 laptop
Windows Vista
Intel Core Duo @2GHz
4GB Ram
Hope you can help as I am wary of putting all my photos on LR now in case it fails - I am using Picasa as a storage instead.
Thanks everyone

Are you going straight from the camera? Take my advice - don't. Use a card reader instead.
