How to Rotate a Laptop Monitor
If you want to rotate a laptop computer monitor, you don't literally rotate the monitor itself. Instead, you change its orientation. The orientation defines the shape of the image being displayed on your laptop monitor. A standard monitor orientation is "Landscape," where the image is wider than it is tall. However, you can choose between other orientations including "Potrait," where the image is taller than it is wide.
