SWITCHING VIEWS LANDSCAPE! HELP!

[john4mac]

In my application, I have two xibs set to landscape, and the app's info is set to landscape, but when I switch from view 1 to view 2 it makes it portrait on view 2.

I posted a video showing what's happening. The view switch happens at the first second. Sorry. You may need to rewatch. The rest of the video is the same issue.

Orientation iPhone SDK Issue - YouTube

.h for view 1

- (IBAction)viewSwitchSingle:(id)sender;

.m for view 1

//Importing of other view controllers
#import "SinglePlayer.h"

@implementation ViewController

//Switching of views from the menu
- (IBAction)viewSwitchSingle:(id)sender {
    
    SinglePlayer *sp = [[SinglePlayer alloc] initWithNibName:@"SinglePlayer" bundle:nil];
                          sp.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve;
                          [self presentModalViewController:sp animated:NO];
}

WITH THE MESS IS GOING BACK TO PORTRAIT? HOW DO I KEEP IN IN LANDSCAPE? PLEASE HELP!

Are you implementing both view controllers' shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: method? It fires whenever the device senses a change in orientation and sends a message to the app to check whether the app should rotate with it, based on the orientation the device is in.

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
     return (interfaceOrientation==UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft || interfaceOrientation==UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight);
}

This will make it so that the view controllers know it's only supposed to turn when the interface orientation is either Landscape Left or Landscape Right (because the expression in the parenthesis will only return YES when the orientation is one of those two).

That was indeed the issue! Thank you so much!
