Declaration:

	Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI IG_REC_orientation_mode_set( enumIGRecImgRotate ImgRotate );

Name	Type	Description
ImgRotate	enumIGRecImgRotate	Image orientation mode to be set. Possible values are: IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_AUTO, IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_NO, IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_RIGHT, IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_DOWN, and IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_LEFT.

Returns the number of ImageGear errors that occurred during this function call.

This function does not process image pixels.

	Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ErrCount = 0; ErrCount = IG_REC_orientation_mode_set(IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_AUTO);

The Image orientation mode can be automatic, switched off, or programmable.

This function does not currently support mirroring of the image.

The auto-orientation feature (IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_AUTO) works only on good quality, machine printed images. It does not work with 9-pin dot-matrix texts.
When any of the IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_FLIPPED, IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_RIGHT_FLIPPED, IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_DOWN_FLIPPED and IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_LEFT_FLIPPED (enumIGRecImgRotate) enum values is specified, the function returns with non-zero value and sets Value1 parameter of the error to IGE_REC_API_PARAMETER_ERR. These mirroring parameters are available only through the immediate image rotation function IG_REC_image_orient.
