iOS landscape orientation

[mekopolis]

quick question

how do you set it so the view loads up in landscape orientation and stays in that mode?

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
	// Return YES for supported orientations
	return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft);
}

thanks

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
	// Return YES for supported orientations
	// return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft);
return YES;
}

You have to do more work than that though to make it really work properly. I'm having some difficulties with it. It gets nasty if you are using a UINavigationController in your program.

i played around with it
and this worked the best for me somehow

hopes this helps someone

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
	// Return YES for supported orientations
	if( interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight ||
	   interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft ) {
		return YES;
	}
	return NO;
}

Here's a mind boggler. Let's say you have navigating through a table view in portrait mode, you when you go into the next screen, you want to look at the detail screen in landscape only.

Can you do that?
