Nextion screen orientation

[KG0AX]

Is there a way to flip the screen on a nextion display?

I have a raspberry pi 3 B, zumspot board, in a c4labs case, with a nextion 2.2 inch display.

I would like to flip the screen so the power connection is on top and not on the bottom of
the case.

Thanks, Ray KG0AX

In the Nextion Editor, open your project. Then click the Device button to open the Setting dialog box. Click DISPLAY, and then you can choose the Display direction.

Theres also a screen rotate entry in the config.

Andrew, In Pistar config I saw one for Oled displays but not for Nextion displays.

Did I miss one? That would be so much easier.

Thanks Toshen,

Finally got around to giving you suggestion a try and it worked.
The image has to be flipped to the 270 and then the orientation
is correct for my setup.

Yep, well noted Ray. I was confusing it with the Oled entry.

It'd be cool to get an option like that for Nextion as well!

[KC1LPT]

That makes more sense.. I'll have to look into that way as well!

Thanks!

I'd be impossible. A Nextion is a stand alone device, there is no way to command it to rotate the orientation on the fly, thats why you have to specify the orientation in the Nextion editor and then compile the .tft file.
