[User Discussion] - Monitor Rotation

Hello
My 3-monitors are rectangular 27". I would like to rotate them 90-degrees as the optics being predominantly vertical is something I'd like to consider.

I haven't found anything addressing that option.

Is it available?

Thanks
JD

Hey JD, this is purely a Windows issue, you don't have to do anything special in Sierra.
Just go to your windows desktop, right-click and choose "Display Settings", then change the Orientation for each of your monitors to "Portrait." Apply the changes, then rotate the monitors. (Exact instructions may vary depending on your video card and version of Windows.)
Once you have your monitors set up the way you want them, Sierra will be perfectly happy to set your charts up across your available monitors any way you like. You'll probably want to use Detached mode to move individual charts to specific monitors. Although with 3 equal-size monitors as you describe, it should also work to maximize the main Sierra window across all 3 desktops. Either way, you'll just have to play around with the options on the Window menu till you get things the way you want them.
Currently I'm set up with 4 monitors: two directly in front of me stacked vertically in landscape mode, with monitors on the left and right sides in Portrait.

That looks nice.

Not really very often we see actual photos of a set up running Sierra Chart.
