Description Jan Brothánek 2009-08-02 18:43:06 UTC 
When I rotate display using Display Properties, the subpixel order changes of course. It would be nice if rotating display would also set the subpixel order when using Subpixel smoothing (LCDs) (Appearance properties - Font Preferences - Font Rendering - Details) like this:

when using Normal and the RGB subpixel order and rotating Upside Down, change the subpixel order to BGR

when using Normal and the RGB subpixel order and rotating Right, change the subpixel order to VGBR

and so on. Simply the subpixel order should "rotate" with the display.
