Screwed up my quadrant shower door..

I took the door off to change the direction the door opened, removing the rollers and fitting them opposite ends because adjustable rollers have to be at the top.... Only to realise that the door stops in the rail itself are hard screwed in and cannot be adjusted, so the door would not open anymore. I had to take to door off again and change the rollers again back to where they were initially.
Now the door doesn't hang properly and is slanted and the upper roller doesn't get to clip into the door stop anymore at the top, when the door is closed.
I have tried adjusting everything, but I just cann get the door to hang anymore.

There is a slight gradient to my bathroom floor, which is why I wanted to hang the door the other way, so that it would self close, instead of self opening as it originally did and does again now, if the door is not fully closed.
I do not remember the door ever NOT closing into the door stop at the top until I messed with it, so the door must have been hanging ok, even with the slight gradient.

Any ideas what I can do to fix this?
Thank you.

The good brands have label on shower door so you can look online at instructions. I guess that one doesn't?

The rollers at the bottom should be sprung, that allows them to stay square in the channel regardless of how the top hinges are adjusted, within reason of course.
