Rotating the Screen (Touch or Pen)
Your ARMOR X7 supports the Windows function of rotating the screen between Landscape and
Portrait layout mode. In landscape mode (default orientation), the long axis of the screen is
along the top and bottom of the display. In portrait mode, you turn the computer 90° and the
long axis of the screen is along the left and right sides of the display.
There are three ways to rotate the screen:
• By using the Intel Graphics options via the desktop or icon tray
• By using the Intel Graphics and Media Control panel
• By using a hot key combination with an external keyboard
NOTE
If you lose calibration when rotating the screen and cannot use the
pen to return to the default orientation, attach an external keyboard
and press Ctrl+Alt+Up Arrow. This will return the display to the
default landscape orientation.
Us ing the Intel Graphics Options
Right click anywhere on the desktop or click on the Intel Graphics icon in the icon tray (you
may have to show hidden icons) and select Graphics Options
à Rotation. Then select one of
the four rotation angles as shown in
Figure 85. NOTE: The “Normal” position is the default
landscape orientation as shown in Error! Reference source not found..
