would like to see a setting for using the screen in Portrait or Landscape mode #1545

Feature Request Since a lot of times signage can be in portrait mode, it would be nice to have a checkbox or a setting that can be changed to automatically rotate all asset's

I use this for signage at home as Movie posters, and all my posters are in Portrait mode, so I have to manually rotate them before uploading them

If such a button already exists, please let me know

I want this option too.

You can probably make a button on the settings page that executes a command or shell file that edits the config.txt with the sed command

This is simple enough to do in /boot/config.txt by adding display_rotate=3

This doesnt actually work.... it still assumes screen size is only the width, so it makes a tiny landscape screen in the middle of the portrait layout instead of using the entire portrait resolution Meaning if you have 1920x1080 - which becomes 1080x1920, it only make s 1080x608 screen in the middle of it when rotated to portrait mode

lt does work. I'm using it in 3 installations currently. If you're rotating the screen and uploading a portrait image, that's effectively 2 rotations Rotate all you portrait images -90 first and you're good to go
