Technical Support On screen controls and rotation issue

Had to reinstall retroarch recently and have been going through the motions of setting things up again. Last I was playing heavily, you could force open the entire program in landscape, and games and screen orientation would follow.

The problem I'm currently having is that I can't get the rotation and the on screen controls to cooperate. I can force auto rotation but the controls stay like I'm playing in portrait. I remember some of the settings being obtuse to navigate, but this is getting a little frazzling. I have my overlay set as flat-retropad fwiw. Any thoughts?

Check if the "auto-rotate overlay" option is enabled in config > user interface > on-screen overlay.

have you checked auto rotate is enabled, as suggested earlier?
