Is there such a thing as: tate ni naru?


So after reading [the answer to this
question](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/9798/769), I did some searching
and came across [this
website](http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=8290), which said, "A
very common phrase is "yoko ni naru". (Become horizontal = lay down)." So I
was wondering if "tate ni naru" which would seem to be (become vertical =
stand up) was used as well.




There's already a word for getting up, namely 起きる. I think that 横になる is mostly
used to distinguish laying down from sleeping. Getting up is 起きる (and waking
up is 目が覚める). In any case, 縦になる is not used.
