hi there,

i wanting to get into the wapcom scene for my illustration. i tryed it a few years back and just couldnt make the transition as successfully as i wanted.

my majour problem was that i couldnt rotate my drawing like you would do when drawing on a piece of paper. i tryed to rotate the screen in the nvidia tools but that also then changes the axis of where the mouse pointer was traveling.

is there a way to rotate the screen that anyone knows of?

Other than physically... the only option to rotate the screen is going to be in the display control application. Many have the option of doing 90 degree... but I am not sure if you can fine-tune that or not.

Sadly, the only really cool option I know about costs a $1000 and that is to get one of the latest tablets from wacom.com... they actually display the picture directly on the tablet... drool, drool...

Other than that... may want to hunt around for a newer graphics program or spent some time hunting in it's settings of the one you have. I know you can normally easily rotate pictures in most of the bigger graphics programs... just not sure if you would lose some quality because each time moves, resets the pic. But can give it a try and see.
