Portrait mode #84

Closed daxx2k closed 7 years ago

daxx2k commented 7 years ago

Hi there, I would like to use the large 2.7inch display in portrait mode, there is any way I can write and display text in that way? thanks!

This is an interesting request that we've not had before. Perhaps @BenScarb and @francesco-vannini might have some ideas about how to do this?

In the meantime you could perhaps turn the text into an image and have it rotated?

Closing this issue as issue #90 has been opened but it's more generic and think more relevant to have it so that you can rotate the screen.

In framebuffer / fbtft this can be done by specifying clockwise rotations from standard - 90, 180, 270 - think this would be our best bet

thanks for looking into that!
