touchscreen rotation to portrait configuration scripts using QUANTA driver

[yerb]

Hi all.

I wanted to rotate touchscreen monitor (IIYAMA T2250MTS) to portrait mode but coordinates for cursor were still working in landscape mode. I have searched for exact answer but it was hard to find.

So, here it is:

Make the .sh scripts and run them. They will change the display rotation and set the proper cursor coordinates.

First list all input devices in terminal (ctrl+alt+t):

xinput -list

it should list something like this:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                        id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                  id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ PIXART USB OPTICAL MOUSE                    id=10    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ QUANTA OpticalTouchScreen                   id=11    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard                       id=3    [master keyboard (2)]
    ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard                 id=5    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Power Button                                id=6    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Sleep Button                                id=7    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Chicony USB Keyboard                        id=8    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Chicony USB Keyboard                        id=9    [slave  keyboard (3)]

then make .sh scripts using gedit:

for landscape:

#!/bin/sh

#landscape (normal)

xrandr -o normal
xinput set-prop "QUANTA OpticalTouchScreen" --type=float "Coordinate Transformation Matrix" 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

for portrait (left rotation):

#!/bin/sh

#portrait (left)

xrandr -o left
xinput set-prop "QUANTA OpticalTouchScreen" --type=float "Coordinate Transformation Matrix" 0 -1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1

Don't forget to set chmod to execute for .sh files:

chmod 777 *.sh

Run them like this:

./portrait.sh

enjoy!
