ive already seen an answer for this for each table to be edited individually, but i am wondering if i can set a global setting for all tables to default to a vertical layout so when i turn my monitor vertical they will all be the same, and if they have to be stretched will it effect the function of the tables? Im on desktop pc by the way not a cab or anything...

i already figured out how to rotate a table but i still wonder if im going to have to do that on every table, and is it passible to rotate the dmd / scoreboard also? i cant figure that out

To have all tables rotated, click Preferences, Video Graphics Options, and you should see "Use always FS Backdrop Setting" which needs to be checkmarked.

This is for Cabinet and Rotated screen usage.

yea i just discovered that and that works fine so now my only issue is getting the dmd to rotate, i tried editing the script (black knight 2000 table) and the registry as people said in another post, but neither one worked..

 

another thought i had instead, would be to get a second monitor instead of only my one main 27 inch screen, but i would want something really small that could fit on my desk, do they make super small mini screens that would be good for putting the dmd / scoreboard on? and then i would have to figure out how to set all that up

 

edit:

ok i just found a 30$ 7inch mini monitor i could use for that.,.

If you are talking about Fluppers version 2.0 Black Knight 2000 here...

Open table script and go to Line 151 and set that to 1.

So it will look like this...

 

const cab_mode = 1 ' 1 = cabinet

 

Now go to Line 537 and you will see this...

 

        .Games(cGameName).Settings.Value("rol") = 0 'set it to 1 to rotate the DMD to the left

 

Change the 0 to a 1 so it looks like this...

 

        .Games(cGameName).Settings.Value("rol") = 1 'set it to 1 to rotate the DMD to the left

 

This will rotate the DMD to the left.

 

Save the table afterwards to keep your settings changes.
