        @keneda Please forgive my stupidity, I'm Chinese. My English is not good, and I seldom open this application. I sometimes install games inside.

            Hi @spike
            Can you send a screenshot of your issue because there are many interpretations regarding your problem.

            Here is what I can try to guess:
            1- You want to use an external screen with your phone
            2- You want to move app windows outside the screen boundaries
            3- You don't understand why legacy apps (standard Linux softwares) don't fit your screen size

                  @applee Can you help me put the desktop screen of the device horizontally? I cannot find this option on the UTTT.

                    @spike There should be a setting in the navigation bar labelled "Rotation". Set it to the OFF position to enable the display to rotate.

                      @cliffcoggin No, there's only one screen lock option.

                        Hi @spike
                        Sorry for the late response.

                        I think I understand your problem.
                        Sadly your device does not have the accelerometer working so the rotation won't work.

                        I think the question about how to change rotation status with a command line has been ask on this forum.
                        I'll try to look it out but the answer is probably on this forum somewhere 😉
