I published a CLI for doing rotation for any display here: https://github.com/alin23/mac-utils/blob/main/bin/RotateDisplay https://github.com/alin23/mac-utils/blob/main/bin/RotateDisp...
Source code in the same repo: https://github.com/alin23/mac-utils/blob/main/RotateDisplay.swift https://github.com/alin23/mac-utils/blob/main/RotateDisplay....
As long as the system reports `true` for `canChangeOrientation`, then the CLI should work.
Lunar (https://lunar.fyi/ https://lunar.fyi/) can also do that and provides some useful hotkeys if you happen to rotate displays often: https://files.alinpanaitiu.com/2106f2eac02df0c3eec379ef199659c06453b13a.png https://files.alinpanaitiu.com/2106f2eac02df0c3eec379ef19965...
- aikinai 4y agoDo any of these methods work to rotate a Sidecar display? Right now I’m using BetterDisplay to creat a dummy and then rotate and stream that dummy to the Sidecar display, but it’s a bit unwieldy and sometimes unreliable (due to an Apple bug apparently).
- alin23 4y agoUnfortunately not, the system reports false for canChangeOrientation on a Sidecar display: mac-utils ./bin/RotateDisplay sidecar 0 ID UUID Can Change Orientation Orientation Name 1 37D8832A-2D66-02CA-B9F7-8F30A301B230 true 0° Built-in Liquid Retina XDR Display 6 BF8D0007-9573-49E5-8130-75991ECB2F15 false 0° Sidecar 4 FB46E28E-5B98-475A-A610-C15237238C8D true 0° LG Ultra HD The display does not support changing orientation: Sidecar [ID: 6]
- aikinai 4y agoI see… Thanks for confirming!
