Hi All,
I have 6 monitors on my Zorin install all arranged in a 2x3 grid. Due to bezel thickness, the top 3 are flipped 180 degrees because the top of the monitor has a very thin bezel. In Zorin, I flip the image on the top 3 (Landscape (flipped).
After reboot, the login prompt appears upside down on the top left monitor, and not on the center bottom monitor as is currently my main display. All is corrected after login. Is there a fix for this? Sounds like it's a bug.
I wish I could help, but I only have one screen.
I ran into this issue myself when I first tried Zorin a few years ago. I can't remember exactly what I did or confirm if this solution is still correct with a new install of the latest Zorin OS, but I had to copy a file containing my user-profile monitor config to the gdm (login system) config folders.
You will need to hunt around the folders a bit to confirm the correct paths, but it should be something like one of these copy commands:
cp ~/.config/monitors.xml ~gdm/.config/
sudo cp ~/.config/monitors.xml /var/lib/gdm3/.config/
Also, according to this Ask Ubuntu answer, if your gdm is running Wayland you may have to disable that and force Xorg as well, if just copying the config didn't fix it. Apparently you edit the file /etc/gdm3/custom.conf and uncomment (or add) the line WaylandEnable=false, then either reboot or restart gdm which will log you out anyway.
