In the Settings window a list will be visible where you can also find a Visual Display item. Select this item to adjust it.
One of the adjustments options is called “Set display”. Click this button to see which screen will be used. You can scroll the options by clicking on the button again. Press “Finish” when you have chosen you option.
Next time you start the experience this position will be used.

Changing the scale of a media item can change its rotation degrees slightly.
The amount of variants per media item is limited to 10.
