    😔… oh well… my new lease of life with my MM was very short lived.

    My mirror is fixed in portrait… so having the system in Lanscape is of no use to me at all.

    Surely not every user here is using MM in Landscape?

        Ok… well can only thank you for your great help on this… at least I have an updated Pi.

        Should I start a new thread asking about portrait mode? Doubt everyone is reading this thread and would comment on how to achieve that?

              @johnnyboy install is for new, upgrade is for previous installed, get to latest
              so you would have to rename the folders back before trying

              we have a version update every 3 months… you can imagine the trouble folks run into

                Yeah, I renamed original MM folder, and just started afresh with your Install script to give me a fresh start… just incase there were any bits that would take forever to find, then fix, on old MM…

                just done the upgrade before seeing your reply, and obviously it reported that no modules found needing npm refresh.

                Fingers x there is a Portrait fix going about, as cannot afford another build in Landscape mode

                    You may have to use the display utility within the desktop manager. see here: https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-rotate-screen/

                      Thanks for your time on this guys…
                      I saw reply’s on my other post too, so will be getting this done today.

                      I remember back a couple years when I first did this, that I had to adjust the modules to fit, and adjust screen to edges/frame… so no doubt this will need done again within CSS… but I have a back up of all my folders, so will have these on hand to help with that.

                      Again, thanks to all for your time… and I will report back on my progress.
