To rotate your Huion screen display, you need to adjust your computer's display orientation settings, typically to "Landscape (Flipped)," which allows you to physically rotate your pen display for a more comfortable working position.
How to Rotate Your Huion Screen Display (Windows)
Rotating your Huion screen involves changing your computer's display settings, not a setting within the Huion tablet driver itself. This is particularly useful for left-handed users or when you want to change the physical orientation of your tablet while maintaining the correct display output.
Understanding Display Orientation
When you rotate your physical Huion pen display 180 degrees, the image on the screen will appear upside down. To correct this, you need to tell your computer to flip the display output. The "Landscape (Flipped)" option reverses the display, making the image appear correctly oriented on your physically rotated tablet.
Step-by-Step Guide to Rotate Your Huion Display
Follow these simple steps to adjust your display orientation on Windows:
Method 1: Via Screen Resolution (Older Windows Versions)
- Right-click on an empty area of your computer's desktop.
- From the context menu, select "Screen resolution".
- In the "Screen Resolution" window, locate the "Orientation" dropdown menu.
- Select "Landscape (Flipped)" from the options.
- Click "OK" or "Apply" to save the changes.
- Finally, flip your pen display 180 degrees to use it in the new orientation.
Method 2: Via Display Settings (Windows 10/11)
- Right-click on an empty area of your computer's desktop.
- From the context menu, select "Display settings".
- In the "Display" settings window, scroll down to the "Scale and layout" section.
- Look for the "Display orientation" dropdown menu.
- Choose "Landscape (flipped)" from the available options.

Why Rotate Your Huion Display?
- Left-Handed Users: Many Huion tablets are designed with buttons and cables optimized for right-handed use. Rotating the display allows left-handed users to access buttons comfortably and route cables without interference.
- Ergonomics: Changing the display's orientation can sometimes offer a more ergonomic drawing or viewing angle, reducing strain during long creative sessions.
- Specific Software Needs: Certain creative applications or workflows might benefit from a rotated display setup.
By adjusting your display orientation to "Landscape (Flipped)" and then physically rotating your Huion pen display, you can customize your workspace for optimal comfort and productivity.
