Adafruit SHARP Memory Display - Screen Orientation

[jonnydub]

Hello,

I'm a noob so please bear with me!

Recently brought a Adafruit SHARP Memory Display Breakout - 1.3" 168x144 which a really nice display however i'm having trouble finding the code to change the screen display from Portrait (144x168) to Landscape (168x144) as I wish to utilise the display side on.

Is there a method to change this setting using the display driver or will I need to rotate everything I draw 90 degrees (e.g images and text)

Code: Select all

# display = adafruit_sharpmemorydisplay.SharpMemoryDisplay(spi, scs, 96, 96)
display = adafruit_sharpmemorydisplay.SharpMemoryDisplay(spi, scs, 144, 168)

Any help much appreciated

Thanks

Jonny

Jonny,

Try adding:

Code: Select all

display.setRotation(1); 

It can go right after:

Code: Select all

display.clearDisplay();

Thank you @mikeysklar

I was using Python via a Pi4 but thanks for that link, i'll use this code instead.
