5x11 in vertical orientation does not exist.

Something close to what you want to do is:

Set c1 to 5x11 in horizontal mode, set c2 to 13x7, in custom settings menu a5 select "store by orientation", "Focus point and AF-area mode".

No go back and make sure, that in horizontal orientation you have selected C1 (5x11), rotate the camera to vertical and select C2 (13x7).

So it will switch between 5x11 and 13x7, whenever you change camera orientation.

Didn't work for me, When I turn the camera vertical all I have is a small square

Aghhhhhhhh

If settings a5 is as I described above:

In custom settings menu a5 select "store by orientation", "Focus point and AF-area mode".

that means, that in vertical mode you have selected a small square (Single point AF?)area mode. You have to select the vertical AF-area mode (in my example C2 set to 13x7) WHILE you are in vertical mode.
