This question already has answers here:
Closed 6 years ago.
I think this question should've been asked a million times by now, but I still can't find an answer to this.
Here's my hierarchy: UINavigationController -> UIViewController 1 ->(push)-> UIViewController 2
UINavigationController: supports all possible orientation
UIViewController 1: supports only portrait
UIViewController 2: supports only landscape
How can I lock UIViewController 1 into portrait only and at the same time lock UIViewController 2 into landscape only? Is it even possible? So far what I see is that UIViewController 2 always takes the orientation of UIViewController 1.
Note, that this is for iOS 6 only.
Thanks!
I am also find the same problem.i have found that shouldAutorotate function not call every time so i change orientation programmatic
first import this
#import <objc/message.h>
then
-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
if(UIDeviceOrientationIsPortrait(self.interfaceOrientation)){
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] respondsToSelector:@selector(setOrientation:)])
{
objc_msgSend([UIDevice currentDevice], @selector(setOrientation:), UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft );
}
}
}
hope this help you.
Add new Objective-C class (subclass of UINavigationController) and add the following code to the .m files
-(NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations
{
NSLog(@"supportedInterfaceOrientations = %d ", [self.topViewController supportedInterfaceOrientations]);
return [self.topViewController supportedInterfaceOrientations];
}
-(BOOL)shouldAutorotate
{
return self.topViewController.shouldAutorotate;
}
-(BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
// You do not need this method if you are not supporting earlier iOS Versions
return [self.topViewController shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:interfaceOrientation];
}
After you added the new classes go to your ViewController classes and make the following changes
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotate // iOS 6 autorotation fix
{
return YES;
}
- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations // iOS 6 autorotation fix
{
return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskAll;
}
- (UIInterfaceOrientation)preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation // iOS 6 autorotation fix
{
return UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait;
}
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation
{
return YES;
}
In the shouldAutorotate , shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: return YES if you want the ViewController to be supporting Multiple orientation else return NO , also in houldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: method pass the Orintation you want for that specific ViewController , Repeat the same for all the view controllers .
Reason of doing this:-
1:Although you can change the preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation: of any viewController to a specific orientation but since you are using the UINavigationController you also need to override the supportedInterfaceOrientations for your UINavigationController
2:In order the override the supportedInterfaceOrientations for UINavigationController we have subclassed UINavigationController and modified the method related to the UINavigation Orientation.
Hope it will help you !
Make the app support only portrait mode and add the following line to the initWithNibName of UIViewController 2
self.view.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(M_PI/2);
