up side down puter screen

[SissySpike]

I bought dell all in one touch screen its my first Dell this happened to me while on ECF making a post. So I might be able to get away with posting it.

anyway I got a call and I some how touched the right combo of keys and my screen went upside down! luckily I had a smart phone and I found the answer in yahoo answers if you press CTRL+ ALT+ arrow your screen flips! I had o clue! all I could do was feel dumb and lost!

Woulda been cool if all your mods fell over when the screen flipped.

I heard that was the special VaperScreen model, so you can change the orientation after you fall over from chain vaping.

I would just turn the monitor up side down. No need for google.

Reminds me of the practical joke programs that I used to use on my friends. Had one that flipped the screen like that and one that made the mouse move in the opposite direction. Its just to bad they don't work anymore since they are for windows 95, but just try flipping a 50lb crt monitor over...

Thats exactly what happened! the mouse was reversed also! but no biggie there its a touch screen. I wonder why this would be made into the system I cant for the life of me figure out how this could be useful. Unless who ever put it in there had a since of humor;-)

lol buzzzlove, this is added for projectors given some are mounted upside down hanging from the ceiling. Indeed it's a little silly to add it as a key combo (projectors dont normally move very often and they all have this setting built into them), I guess there may be someone who uses it instead of their projector remote though.

I work in IT and had a user do exactly this.
