Nevertheless it is confusing if one "output" setting does also influence the display, while the others don't. > It makes sense having different rotations for output and display. I don't agree. > I recently stumbled on postscript files turning out rotated in LyX > display but with the correct orientation in the output. That is a converter problem. Some converters try to be smart and rotate images if they are wider than high. This has happened for me e.g. for png->eps conversion with the netpbm utilities. I have also seen it with postscript files where the eps->png conversion that is used for display rotated the image. This problem should be fixed on the converter side, otherwise you will get different rotations depending on whether you run latex or pdflatex. If none of your converters rotates images then a different setting for LyX display is not needed. Georg
