DisplayOrientation
Has value Horizontal or Vertical. Indicates orientation of the elements of the variable within the grid. Some components (such as Quanvert DSC) currently set this property on the Variable or VariableInstance objects and not on the grid itself. However, this use is to be phased out. To maintain backwards compatibility, when looking for the orientation of a grid, components should search the custom properties on the grid and then on the associated variables and VariableInstances recursively. When looking for the orientation of a variable or VariableInstance, components should search the custom properties on the VariableInstance, then the associated variable, and the variable's parent, grandparent, and so on, up to the grid that contains it.
