Description

when display setting is rotate to 90 degree clockwise, ofGetWidth(), ofGetHeight() returns wrong information depend on WINDOW_MODE.

with OF_WINDOW mode, works fine but, with OF_FULLSCREEN is not.

for example, 1920x1080 monitor, 90 degree clockwise rotate setting,

  • OF_WINDOW mode
    • ofGetWidth() : 1080
    • ofGetHeight() : 1920
  • OF_FULLSCREEN mode
    • ofGetWidth() : 1920
    • ofGetHEight() : 1080

I tested with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, openFrameworks 0.9.6.

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Reproduce the issue on Ubuntu with a 90-degree rotated 1920x1080 display, comparing OF_WINDOW and OF_FULLSCREEN, then trace the window-size reporting path; done means ofGetWidth() and ofGetHeight() return the rotated dimensions in both modes.
