Hi @jagadeeshkotha!
Is

((AppiumDriver) driver).rotate(ScreenOrientation.LANDSCAPE);

appropriate?

((AppiumDriver) driver).Rotate (ScreenOrientation.LANDSCAPE); you are realized in which class or function?

Is it C#?
Above I wrote about Java.
I am looking at the C# sources and I see that Rotate method is here...

This method is here since first versions of client libraries were published.

I'm using Ruby and rotate method does not work for me (undefined method). Does somebody know how to get the device orientation and rotate the device? Thanks

A bit late, but you can use the following sequence (assuming appium_driver is the variable that hold the reference to your Appium::Driver instance):

appium_driver.driver.rotate :landscape

(The Appium driver basically holds an internal reference to a Selenium driver, on which you can call rotate).
