Hi can I suggest adding screen orientation, sleep settings and remove cursor to the official screen plug in - in the plug in settings? I would pay to get this feature if necessary?
Cheers

Yes would be a nice to have feature indeed.
For the time being, it is very easy to configure volumio yourself with the settings you describe with putty. Found it somewhere in the forums:
Touchscreen timeout disable:
Note, this also removes the cursor, for that I installed unclutter:
sudo apt-get install unclutter
sudo nano /opt/volumiokiosk.sh
Change line #1, replace “+dpms” by “-dpms”
Change line #2, replace “blank” by “off”
Remove line #3
then added the following line to the end of /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart
@unclutter -idle 0
This worked for me.

Thanks. I’ve used those myself.
The reason I want it in a plugin is because I have designed a case that can stand up (on a shelf) or lay down on a hi fi stand. And changing the orientation through SSH makes this case feature too tricky.
What I wanted was to be able to change the cases position on a whim and just change the screen orientation using plug-in settings.
I see, yes that would be handy indeed. While they are at it, the possibility to select screen resolution would be convenient as well. So you can switch between TV and integrated touch panel with HDMI splitter for instance.
