[Small Enhancment] Add an option to specify notebook rotation #151

Hey, It would be super cool if one could use rmapi to change orientation of notebooks! Thanks

a stupid question from my part, but why?

richard-hajek commented 3 years ago

I am not sure how many people will use this but I can offer my use-case.

I use reMarkable to draw on desktop screenshots, e.g. when I am solving a puzzle and I don't want to redraw it I just screenshot it and send it to reMarkable trough a single script. I overall really like this setup except for one thing. The screenshots are horizontally oriented so that means for each screenshot I have to manually change the orientation. While that is just 2 taps, doing it every 10 minutes gets tiring fast.

I figured out a possible workaround - I can SSH to the reMarkable, figure out the latest uploaded file and change its orientation from within reMarkable metadata files. While I would still appreciate a better solution, feel free to close this issue if you don't think this feature is desirable.

ddvk commented 3 years ago

it is not stupid.

so you just want a way to change the metadata.

there is a request to be able to change lastpage

richard-hajek commented 3 years ago

Yes, I'd like to change the metadata. Also my workaround is not working so I still would love a proper feature

for the workaround to work you have to restart xochitl. also you can make a script to do the whole thing
