The main UIViewController (A) displays another UIViewController (B) when the devices rotates to Landscape mode. So rotating the device to landscape while on A presents B modally and rotating back to portrait on B dismisses B and goes back to A.

While on B I want to push another UIViewController (C) into A's stack. C can only be displayed in portrait though. I am aware that this goes against the HIG, as orientation should always be conserved between transitions.

So I want to be able to do the following on B:

  • Dissmiss B
  • Push C to A's stack (so popping from C goes back to A)
  • Switch back to portrait orientation so C is displayed in portrait

If you have the Pay With Square app, you'll see that they solved this problem by fading in C (rotate the app to show the map and choose an annotation) but they didn't add it to the current stack, allowing only dismiss it.

You could push the view controller like normal then in viewDidAppear use some code from this thread to rotate the view.
