I'm thinking of upgrading my monitor. I've noticed that flat panels that can be adjusted between landscape and portrait mode are no longer always expensive and not necessarily scarce.
But searching for them to do price and feature comparisons seems hard because most sites for my local electronics shops don't list this feature in their search page and even descriptions of the monitors don't seem to always mention they can do this, or state it in a variety of ways, most of which are ambiguous.
Unless I'm missing something.
You could describe this feature as "tilting", "rotating", "pivoting", or "swivelling", but all of those terms could just mean that there's some degrees of adjustment of the viewing angle around the X, Y, and/or Z axes. Or just "portrait mode". Is one of these actually more or less standard or at least less ambiguous?
Related, do such monitors signal the OS when you twist it between landscape and portrait? If only some of them do so, does this feature have a name? (If it depends on the connector type etc I suppose it's getting off-topic so just the standard way to describe this signalling feature will do.)
