Hi Robert,

If you mean that your wife has to touch her ear to her shoulder, so to speak, in order to read the screen, here's the fix:

Press Control-Alt-UpArrow to put the screen display upright again. This is a hotkey for your graphics software, I suspect. Since this is also a Window-Eyes hotkey, then, if you want to reserve it for Window-Eyes, then you must disable hot keys in the pull-down menu for the graphics applet running in the notification area at the bottom right of the screen. All you have to do is uncheck the hotkeys entry on that menu.

hth,

Rod

Colleagues,

This isn't exactly a WindowEyes question although I suppose it could effect access. I've been a computer user for thirty years since the days of the Apple 2E and I've never had this happen except with the Iphone and Ipad. Somehow the screen orientation on my laptop has turned from landscape to portrait. My son and wife noticed it and my wife uses the computer and wants it fixed. I don't even know where to go with windows 8 to find where to do this. Anybody got any suggestions? Advice will be much appreciated. I'm reluctant to do too much experimentation for fear that I'll screw something up big time and I need the computer and some rather vital material on it for work. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Bob Martin
