Is there a way to lock the horizontal swing of the device in a selected position?

No - but that is why it works so well - it moves with your natural hand/arm movements.
637188
No. But you wouldn't want to. I've been using this device for over 6 years, and it's the movement that makes it so comfortable, practical, and invaluable to the ergonomic health of your arms and shoulders.
637189
no there is not. I have had the same problem so this device was useless. I would suggest that you try to return it but unless you are a lawyer or have the money to hire one, that is not an option. Amazon and the Ergo people have draconian measures in place to prevent anyone from getting a refund.

You can mount it upside down or right side up to get the door to swing in any direction you want. It doesn't appear to matter. There are no numbers or text on the door. Just two key locks and the quick entry lock.

There is a T bolt (bolt with plastic wing type head easy to turn) that comes with the unit to lock the tilting position. I just adjusted my screen earlier today, so it's there and it works. Not a whole lot of range for tilting though, maybe 30 degree up and down? Hope this helps.

I tried this position, but it does not work for me. I rarely take off the keyboard and prefer to use the table almost as a netbook.

No, there is no way to lock it once laid back into a horizontal position. You can adjust the height of the ankle locks, which make it easier or harder to rotate back and upside down. But I wouldn't suggest doing so. If you put the ankle locks at a height much shorter than yourself, it will be extremely easy to flip upside down, but once you get past the point of verticle, gravity makes it nearly impossible to rotate back upright-which can be pretty dangerous. Don't get me wrong though, I love mine. But I use it for stretching out my back and only that.

I don't believe it can be switched. Perhaps the customer could specify the swing - left or right handed. Hope this helps.

I don't see anyway you could disable it from the inside. It would have to be keyed entry on both sides for that to work. Sorry. :(

Yes, It locks in the up and down position. There are two safety clips on the release bar that must be moved before you can press the release bar

There's no thumb screw to lock the position. The tilt is, as you say, via a ratchet type click mechanism. There is a large phillips head screw and nut that can adjust tension on the tilt, but it won't lock it in position. I found it best at a moderately firm tightness, that allows the head to easily tilt without sagging.

That's kind of a two part answer so bear with me lol. There is supposed to be a way, but the manual is in Chinese and I haven't translated it yet. There are almost always ways to force it if nothing else. You can do it through windows display preferences, that is probably the easiest way since it directly controls all monitor orientations.

I agree with the other answer - it only locks when it's in the upright position.

I'm not sure. When you are putting it up, just raise it to the height you want, but I don't know if there will be a locking device at that spot, but you could devise one.

It can swing in either direction, but there's a small pin you insert to keep it from swinging out.

There is a feature for pressing 1 x or 2 x for locking....But not NO times....That is all I got!

No it can be adjusted from vert le to horizontal. The security strap holds it tight.

There's no locking mechanisms when it comes to turning or swiveling - Thanks

I use the Kensington trackball software that you can download on their site. There's an option, that when you click both the left and right buttons at the same time, to mimic the middle mouse button click, which functions as a scroll lock.
