Flip screen upside down

[macasero]

Is it possible to flip the screen upside down, so we have the SD on left position other than right position?

Also interested in flipping the GUI. Have not been able to identify any built in rotation commands.

been waiting for this my screen is collecting dust on my desk also baby stepping z offset would be nice

Should be capable of baby stepping as there is a menu item for it during printing. Settings are found in config_adv. Make sure to enable them on the printers board first, then the screen should stop displaying unknown command errors.

void set_display_direction(u8 direction)
{
	if(direction) {
    LCD_WR_REG(0x36); 
    LCD_WR_DATA(0xE8);
    Delay_ms(120); 
	} else {
    LCD_WR_REG(0x36); 
    LCD_WR_DATA(0x48);
    Delay_ms(120);     
	}
}

0-landscape, 1-portrait etc

@ArturNadolski Thanks for the function, although being a noob at C&C++ I am still lost on how to implement this.

If you would be so kind, where would I insert the function (GUI.c, ui_draw.c, etc...) and should I be assigning a hex value to 'direction?' (0x01, 0x02, etc...)

• Any help is appreciated thanks for the tip already.

Flipping the screen is quite simple but flipping touch screen (menu) needs more coding.
