I’m trying out the windows demo and when making the window fullscreen on on a reverse landscape display, it renders upside down, like the display wasn’t rotated.

Context: I’m left handed so I use my tablet in 180 degree rotation mode. The issue isn’t specific to the tablet tho, i’ve tested reverse landscape rotation on all my monitors and nomad renders upside down on 2 out of 3. Might be important that both of these connect via hdmi, while the good monitor is on displayport. Worth noting also that the pen mapping on the tablet remains correctly oriented, so the input just shows up reversed on screen.

To make things stranger, it flips over and renders correctly when i click on a different window! So as long as the the nomad window is active and full screened it will render upside down. Windowed mode works fine in all cases.

THE PLATFORM: Windows 10  
NOMAD APP VERSION: 2.9.22  
TABLET: XP-Pen Artist 16 (2nd gen)  
GPU: GTX 1060

> Landscape (flipped)

I’m confused, you explicitly said you want it flipped there.

Yes, and my tablet is physically rotated 180 degrees from default orientation. Therefore “landscape flipped” is right side up on the tablet, for everything except full screen nomad
