KeePass 2.x freezes on a rotated screen
A lightweight and easy-to-use password manager

I have a monitor with a swivel function and I usually use it rotated by 90 degrees (using NVidia Control Panel). Now, the problem is that on a rotated screen, KeePass Password Safe (2.x) freezes.
I think it's because of the non-standard screen size. I've noticed similar behavior in several .NET framework apps, but not in all of them, so I think the bug is fixable and it's not an MS bug. (The previous version - 1.x - runs fine on a rotated screen).
Using version 2.46 I tested this with 2 different montiors: a BenQ Zowie and an Acer S231HL. The BenQ has built in swiveling functionality, but both are able to be adjusted within the NVideo Control Panel. Upon several tests of switching orientations both landscape to potrait and the other way around no freezing or crashing was observed on either monitor.
Great, thanks for the info! As KeePass doesn't contain any code related to monitor orientation, I guessed that this was a bug in the graphics card driver, .NET Framework or Windows. In any case, I'm glad that it's fixed now.
Best regards,
