Changing screen orientation? #2

Open shekit opened 7 years ago

shekit commented 7 years ago

How can the screen orientation be changed (such as landscape/portrait)? I tried editing /boot/config.txt as well as config.txt inside the uctronics folder but none seem to impact the screen

Hi, The screen can't support rotation.

Regards.

@shekit Now ,you can rotation it to 180 by running sudo ./UCTRONICS_LCD35_rotation_180_install

I have attempted to command to rotate the screen 180 but I get the command not found. I installed the UCTRONICS LCD35 using the first three commands on the page: https://github.com/uctronics/uctronics_lcd35_rpi/

I installed the touchscreen calibration and the virtual keyboard. Then I went to step NO.4 to rotate the keyboard using the following steps: cd UCTRONICS_LCD35_RPI (got into the directory)

sudo chmod 777 UCTRONICS_LCD35_rotation_180_install (No such file or directory) ... And therefore I cannot execute the rotation...

sudo ./UCTRONICS_LCD35_rotation_180_install

So what steps do I need to take to rotate the screen? Bear in mind that I am new to Raspberry pi as of today.

UPDATE I was able to rotate the screen. I had a spelling error on the sudo chmod 777 command. FYI, using Raspberry Pi 3 NOOBS

Screen works well (and touchscreen works correctly) with no rotation.

However, after executing: sudo ./UCTRONICS_LCD35_rotation_180_install

touchscreen functionality is lost and when I run calibration program I get the message "Error:No calibratable devices found"

Returning to no rotation with sudo ./UCTRONICS_LCD35_install brings back touchscreen functionality.
