Hi,

Which device do you see this with?

I should point out that the preview orientation will only work correctly
in the primary orientations (portrait or landscape) because of
https://launchpad.net/bugs/1535820 - ie, an inverted preview in
inverted-portrait or inverted-landscape is currently expected because of
a platform limitation.

Still, what you describe does not sound expected.

Thanks,
- Chris
