Rotate Raspberry Pi screen via command line?

e14 Contributor
e14 Contributor over 10 years ago

Is it possible to rotate the RPi display directly by command line (without editing the config.txt file)?

I've searched for this possibility but without success.

 

Thanks!

    Unfortunately without a lot of technical here no! imageThe code driving the display is built with parameters when started. These setup the geometry of the buffering that is statically done once.
