10.4: A set of AppleScripts to rotate the display
Before 10.4.2, one could hold down option to force the rotate button to appear in the monitor control panel on a powerbook. In 10.4.2 this feature has been lost, unfortunately without any noise from the people. Does this script re-enable it? I've tried it out and it didn't do anything, apart from giving me the error that it can't click the radio button named "Display". Too bad :-(
Not on all hardware
I have an original 12" powerbook and I could never get the rotate option to appear, not in any version of OS X. Other people I know with iBooks and different powerbooks also could not get it to appear.

The option-click method used to work on my iBook G4 1GHz 14", but doesn't anymore (I'm currently running 10.4.2). I haven't tried it in a while, so I don't know which update broke it. Too bad, it was fun, even if I had no practical use for it.

I don't know how to enable the rotate submenu if it's not there. However, if you get the error that it can't click on the "Display" radio button, open the script in Script Editor, and change the line:

I get the rotate button but only on an external monitor
on my 15" AlBook, I get the rotate button when I connect to an external monitor, just not with the built-in LCD.

The blog post above mentions this, but not the actual post: This script only rotates external displays (or all displays on a PowerMac desktop). |
