How to configure android emulator to auto change orientation upon rotating

The little icon seems only shown when auto-rotate is turned off. After I turn on auto-rotate, the emulator changes orientation automatically.

Switching to landscape mode in Android Emulator

Try:

• ctrl+fn+F11 on Mac to change the landscape to portrait and vice versa.
• left-ctrl+F11on Windows 7.
• ctrl+F11on Linux.

For Mac users, you only need to use the fn key if the setting "Use all F1, F2 etc. keys as function keys" (under System Preferences -> Keyboard) is checked.

• left-ctrl+F11on Windows 7
  It works fine in Windows 7 for android emulator to change the landscape orientation to portrait and vice versa.

As suggested by Nicolas Jafelle here, you can try to add the property "Keyboard Support-->yes" in the emulator settings. That helped me.

PS: it will also allow for your emulator to get input from your keyboard. See more here
