 		 #87274 - 90° Rotation Indeed
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Sure it is totally possible to rotate the display that way for a quick test.

If this would be appropriate for the final product who knows. It is not actually that simple due to a characteristic of LCD displays in the way they are polarized. The manufacturer may have setup the 240 x 128 display for optimum viewing when viewed at some angle from below the module in a horizontal position. This of course would not be suitable if that same display were used in the alternate rotation.

I worked on a product in fact that used a 128x64 display in a "tall" presentation:



(The pic is fuzzy because the display is LED backlit and placed behind both a polarizing filter and an glass plate that is coated to provide a degree of EMI shielding).
