Comments on: Display Rotation Script http://www.gizmometer.com/blog/?p=6 Sketching Out Ideas Fri, 13 Aug 2010 02:15:06 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Chaos http://www.gizmometer.com/blog/?p=6&cpage=1#comment-2643 Chaos Sun, 23 Nov 2008 01:44:44 +0000 http://www.gizmometer.com/blog/?p=6#comment-2643 this is all well and good, but i have dual monitors and i'd like for the LEFT monitor to rotate 90 degrees, and the RIGHT monitor to rotate 270 degrees. (options 2 and 4 in Display Rotation preferences) how would i go about doing this? this script works, but it rotates both of my displays either 90 degrees or 270 degrees. I dont really care if i need 2 scripts to do it. some thing i have in my favor is that the LEFT monitor is named "DELL 2407WFP" and the RIGHT monitor is named "Sceptre X24WG" even though they're both Sceptre X24WG monitors. anybody care to show me how i would script this? this is all well and good, but i have dual monitors and i’d like for the LEFT monitor to rotate 90 degrees, and the RIGHT monitor to rotate 270 degrees.

To append: The original script can be found here: http://fancyham.com/ so you can send him your regards personally. The script isn't my work, I only changed some lines. Just to clarify.

Thanks for the updates Bryan!

In less than 20 seconds I was spinning that monitor like a top. I have a samsung and spent all afternoon messing around with a script then it hit me there must be one out there.

I've modified your script so that it only toggles between landscape and portrait modes. I have a Dell 1905FPV which rotates 90° in one direction only, so I hard-coded landscape and portrait rotations into a single applescript, which I can trigger with a keypress to toggle between modes automagically. I also reduced the delay for the 'confirm' button press after a rotation to non-standard mode. I've put a page up with my modified applescript (http://fancyham.com/tips/OS_X_toggle_display_rotation_applescript.html). Please feel free to incorporate any of my changes into your script. Thanks again! Hi there! I’ve modified your script so that it only toggles between landscape and portrait modes.
