I need to rotate a window (90º to the left) but with the desktop runs normal (without rotation).
The application is not mine and I have the source code. But I wonder about if there is a feature to do this action.
I remember the times of Compiz or Beryl that they have a lot of features to do awesome and unuseless things, but now I don't know if there are things left over from the past.
I am running a
$ lsb_release -a
