How to change the orientation of the iPad simulator?

How can we change the orientation of the iPad simulator?

For the Android tablet simulators the Ctrl + F12 combination is used to change the orientation from portrait to landscape, similarly what is to be used to change the orientation of simulator from "portrait" to "landscape" and back to "portrait"?

While all the above mentioned answers work perfectly fine.

I recently wanted to check my app against Face Up/Down orientations. None of the answers above made it possible(unless I am missing something). But the same can be achieved by clicking on Hardware > Orientation and then select the orientations you are after.

In my case, shortcuts in Safari were not working instead selecting then click the device will change its orientation.
