Can one disable the auto rotation on Kobo Forma?

Gadgetguy · 09-14-2020, 10:49 PM

Hello all,

is it possible to completely disable the auto rotation on the Forma? How?

I know that one can disable landscape vs. portrait.

But when I did that portrait still sometimes rotated upside down.

I do not want ANY rotation after locking in portrait - can that be done?

How?

Thank you for any suggestions.

Don't believe you can entirely disable it but in dev mode you can set the Z-lock angle threshold and the Back/Front trip angle to greater numbers so that should reduce the incidence of flipping.
