I'm currently working on an app for my robotics team to use for an upcoming competition. I've been using a Navigation Drawer template and I've been working hard but ran into a major issue. I found that every time I oriented the app, it would go to the original layout from the first fragment. I fixed this by android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize" to the AndroidManifest.xml and it fixed my original issue but created another. While changing the orientation does not change the layout or destroy the fragment, the app will not load my landscape layouts and all my TextBoxes will be out of place compared to the ones in the layout-land folder. I understand that I have to use onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) but I do not understand where I should put it or what should be inside it (Not very advanced in Java programming). Should it be in one or all my fragment folders? Should it be in the main activity class? If you could please help me, that would be great. Here is my MainActivity.class, if you require my fragment classes, please let me know.
Thanks, Samer
