My application supports every 4 orientation, I have a UIViewController
which is in LandscapeRight
.
I am using UINavigationController
to push that UIViewController
, i want that UIViewController
to be only in UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight
but when I rotate the phone, it switches back to other Orientation.
-(BOOL)shouldAutorotate{
return NO;
}
-(NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations{
return UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight;
}
-(UIInterfaceOrientation)preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation{
return UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight;
}
just remove those shouldAutorotate, supportedInterfaceOrientations and preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation.
and add this to the viewcontroller you want to display landscape only.
-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated{
[[UIDevice currentDevice] setValue:
[NSNumber numberWithInteger: UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft]
forKey:@"orientation"];
}
actually, this is from a similar question with solution here.
How to force view controller orientation in iOS 8?
You need to create a sub class of UIViewController
. And apply interface orientation related changes in this sub class. Extend your view controller in which you want to lock orientation with the sub class. I'll provide an example of this.
I have create class which only shows landscape orientation for view controller.
LandscapeViewController
is a subclass of UIViewController
in which you have to deal with orientations.
LandscapeViewController.h:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface LandscapeViewController : UIViewController
@end
LandscapeViewController.m:
#import "LandscapeViewController.h"
@interface LandscapeViewController ()
@end
@implementation LandscapeViewController
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil {
self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
if (self) {
}
return self;
}
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
-(BOOL)shouldAutorotate {
return YES;
}
-(NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations {
return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape;
}
-(BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation {
if (toInterfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight) {
return YES;
}
else {
return NO;
}
}
@end
Extend your view controller using above subclass.
For example:
#import "LandscapeViewController.h"
@interface SampleViewController : LandscapeViewController
@end
