Screen rotation on CYD?
I'm looking to mount my CYDs next to (American) physical light switches, so being able to rotate the screen so that the USB ports point down (or up) would be helpful.
It looks like there's no support for rotating CYD displays - if this is the case, could it be added as a feature request? Thank you!

Add a commentthanks! Porttrait mode is indeed not in the firmware for the CYD atm, maybe later, i put it on the list!

Thanks for saying what you needed it for. Mounting next to a light switch is exactly the case that made it worth doing properly.
It's in 0.2.107. When you add a CYD under New screen you now pick how it will hang, lying down or standing up, and standing up gives you a column of four tiles a page. The USB port can point up or down either way: the half turn stays a setting on the screen itself, so you can flip it without rebuilding.
The touch calibration follows the screen now as well, so a CYD standing up calibrates just like a flat one. Tested on a real board before release.
Let us know how it looks next to your switches!

Great, thank you - it works wonderfully! I also appreciate the option to choose the graphics chip - one less thing to configure in the override settings!

Amazing!! Are you able to share an image how it sits on the wall with the physical light switches?
Like my work? Consider buying me a coffee, much appreciated!

I'll share an image as soon as I get one mounted up! I have a 3d printed case I'm finalizing to hold the CYD as well as a 120 / 220 VAC to 5VDC buck converter so that the CYD can be powered by the power feeding the light switches. Once I get that all figured out, I'll share.
