Tips for switching sequence between the portrait and landscape screens of a custom Monitor

Nowadays, the portrait display mode of mobile phones and iPad is becoming more and more commonly used, because the portrait display is easy to scan and the e-book is displayed in the best size, it is also more similar to the feeling given by books, for users who read e-books, they should have a deep understanding.

On PC monitors, especially for Laptop/tablet users with the touch function, sometimes we need to display them on a portrait screen,For example, vertical screen is a better proportion for displaying web pages, reading PDF files, and reading Word documents.. Of course, not all PCs support image rotation. For a common display, the display card driver and the display itself must be supported at the same time.

When you press the "rotate screen" button for the hardware or software, the display will follow theDirection sequence settings"To switch the display direction, rather than the clockwise rotation by default. For those who often need to switch the screen, this is the case.It is much more convenient than the default settings through the "resolution" control panel and "Rotating Screen".

Last, the iPad and Android mobile phones are the most convenient to rotate the screen, because they have the gravity sensing function, and can intelligently adjust the display direction based on the placement location, without manual operation.
