The --rotate normal,inverted,left,right does not work, but you can use the transform option to achieve the same effect.
To create the transformation matrix you can use something like: https://angrytools.com/css-generator/transform/
- for translateXY enter half the screen resolution
- don't copy the generated code, it has the numbers in the wrong order just type out the matrix row wise.
The final command looks like this:
xrandr --output screen-1 --transform 0.87,-0.50,960,0.50,0.87,540,0,0,1
To restore the original use (type this in first, because if you screw up you might not be able to see anything anymore):
xrandr --output screen-1 --transform 1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1
I tested it on x11.
This is probably the only reason microsoft recall exists, as it is completely useless for anything else.
