can this stand be used for "portrait" viewing as well as "landscape" viewing?

Clip designed for landscape but I tried it "portrait" & it is wobbly but it did stay if left alone. But if the table was bumped even a little, the iPad would fall over.

Hello Travis,You will be able to easily rotate the monitors between landscape and portrait.Taylor W.VIVO

No - it will rotate freely (depending on your wiring slack) between portrait and landscape. HOWEVER, a tool is needed to change the "tilt". Since I use my stand at the foot of my bed, I keep the panel rotated slightly downward for a more direct viewing. If I were to need to rotate it to portrait (which I don't anticipate), I'd either have to adjust the tilt (which would have it facing slightly sideways) - or, more likely, simply offset the whole stand a bit to compensate.

Yes, but in portrait mode it will not be in contact with the seven pins in the center of the stand. Please check with the manufacturer what those pins are for. It does not affect me because I usually put it on a music stand.

Perhaps you could mount the monitor in portrait mode, but it does not swivel. The vesa pattern is square so I see no reason the monitor couldn't be permanently mounted that way, other than balance issues maybe.

Absolutely. You can also use it landscape or portrait. I believe this is a great deal for the cost.

Yes it will stand in a portrait position so you can set it down and view; but it is not really stable enough to push the iPad unless you hold the iPad with your other hand.

Yes, you can rotate from landscape to portrait. the stand has proven to be very stable.

I don't really know that answer but I just measured and it would have to be longer than 8.5 inches if the stand is In the landscape position. I don't believe it would work or function well in the portrait position. The rubber feet help to grip it but most likely it will rest against the back of the holder rather than all four sides resting comfortably in the rubber feet. I hope this helps you.

Yes. I have one in portrait and the other two in landscape. The set up works great for me. My monitors are not all the same size or brand, however the reasons and system I'm using the stand for works great for me. Be mindful of the bolt size and pattern.

No. It had a built-in eazel onIts back, so it can be propped up for viewing (portrait or landscape).

No. The display is always portrait orientation. It does not respond to how you hold and turn it.

No. The stand has groves designed for the device to fit in Landscape mode. Plus the stand has such a low profile that if you were to turn it Portrait it would probably flip over the stand.

No, the stand is too short for vertical use. The stand has a custom bracket that only goes on in the normal orientation. However, the are standard mounting threads in back of the monitor, you can use a custom stand.

Yes. I use one of my monitors portrait for wen pages and the other screen landscape for games. If you try to do it with your hands you might loosen it too much. I recommend the tool that comes with it, just pop the cover off the side and tighten or loosen it.

No, I never tried using it in the landscape position. I use it for documents (portrait)

Really intended for portrait mode, because of the clamping support. I Have tried using it in landscape mode, but you will need to make sure you clamp it tight and tilt the unit back a bit.
