Creating Orientation Aware Displays

You can customize object settings so they only appear in a Vertical display, a Horizontal display, or None (the default). This feature allows users to create displays that can display more data like an AlarmWorX64 or TrendWorX64 control when the physical device is rotated.

For example, a horizontal display is ideal for alarm controls or trending.
