Change orientation in android emulator - android-studio

I have a problem with the Android emulator, while working in Android Studio.
I press Ctrl+F12 (or Crtl+F11) Android emulator window change orientation, BUT android doesn't.
I looked in Android settings -> Display, and "auto-rotate screen" is ON.

I guess you have already found the answer, but this may seem helpful for future searches.
Environment: Android Studio 1.3.2, Windows 7, emulator for API19 (Android 4.4.2) :
Orientation can be changed using the "7" and "9" buttons of your keyboard's numpad. Num Lock must be disabled.

Android Studio Emulator no more considering Swipes on Notebook Touchscreens as Input

I upgraded to Android Studio Bumblebee 2021.1.1 and realized that I cannot fully control the emulator with the touchscreen of my notebook anymore. Press events on the touchscreen (like mouse clicks) are still recognized correctly, but when I swipe nothing happens in the emulator.
Unfortunately, I did not note down the previous version of Android Studio that I had installed before, but with previous Android Studio versions I was always able to fully control the Android emulator via the touchscreen (as if I was actually testing my app on a real mobile phone).
My Google searches did not show any results related to this issue. Does anyone have an idea what the root cause could be and if it is possible to fix it?
Disabling launch in tool window in Settings::Tools::Emulator fixed it for me (requires emulator restart to take effect).

Arctic Fox: Android emulator doesn't have back button

When creating emulator in AVD manager, enable hardware button was checked but there is still no hardware button below. It is android studio Arctic Fox and API level 30. Anything wrong with android studio? It is on macOS Big Sur.
You may try re-installing the emulator...
In case it doesn't work, check in your Emulator Android Settings, like their in our Android Phone that Full-Screen Display is disabled.
Settings > Display > Full screen display > Enable Buttons (Disable Full screen gestures)
When API level is reduced to 27, the emulator has hardware button and other features Android phone has.

Why did android studio change Nexus 6 to sdk gphone x86 arm?

Here are the phones
Here is the error message when I hover over the Nexus 6 phone
"Not applicable for main.dart configuration"
Image system is R. API is 30. Flutter doctor says there are no issues.
Running on macOS Catalina. Android Studio 4.0.1.
How do I get it to work?
Flutter in Android Studio doesn't use the regular Android Studio device selector (the one on the right that's grayed out) because you can also select iPhones as target, which Android Studio's selector cannot do. Disregard that device selector for Flutter development, it's not used. The first one alone determines the phone your Flutter app will run on.
sdk_gphone_<architecture> is the device fingerprint of an official Android emulator. Select your phone's fingerprint (it should be either "Nexus 6", or the Nexus 6's code name, which is "shamu") in the left dropdown menu instead to run it on that, or make sure you have no emulators running.

Android Studio selects wrong target device: always runs app on first selected one

How can I debug other than the first device in Android Studio?
I have two Genymotion devices Nexus 5 and Nexus 6, I can run both successfully but when I try to run/debug app from android studio no matter what device I choose it always runs first selected device.
Initially I thought it is genymotion issue but, it was not the case because same happens if I connect real device. Even though device appears in device chooser dialog but it looks like android studio internally doesn't see it.
Stopping debugging for current device before selecting new device helped me. (Red square)
Here is the solution
First: Go to run configuration in android studio
Then: Select the emulator you want
Finally: Run it
It's a bug in Android Studio, supossedly fixed in 1.5.1 but I have 1.5.1 and the bug is still present. Suggested workaround from Google dev is to "close the debug tab once it is done":
