First of all, my project hierarchy:
tab bar controller -> navigation master -> view controllers
I have one page I want to rotate in landscape mode.
My project is compatible with all the device orientation modes.
I've manually frozen all the view controllers with autorotation returning false:
override func shouldAutorotate() -> Bool {
return false
}
except the one I want to rotate. S
I'm trying this in the view controller I want to be displayed in landscape:
let value = UIInterfaceOrientation.LandscapeLeft.rawValue
UIDevice.currentDevice().setValue(value, forKey: "orientation")
But does nothing.
Also, I experimented an issue with this method. When the app was starting in landscape, the view was displaying in landscape and was unable to rotate. I manage to fix it with this method In my app delegate:
func application(application: UIApplication, supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow window: UIWindow?) -> UIInterfaceOrientationMask {
if(self.restrictRotation == false){
return UIInterfaceOrientationMask.Portrait//UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortrait
}
else{
return UIInterfaceOrientationMask.All//UIInterfaceOrientationMaskAll
}
}
And in viewDidLoad setting the var to true where I want to allow rotations:
let appDelegate = UIApplication.sharedApplication().delegate as! AppDelegate
appDelegate.restrictRotation = true
let value = UIInterfaceOrientation.LandscapeLeft.rawValue
UIDevice.currentDevice().setValue(value, forKey: "orientation")
I've tested with the debugger and the method application(application: UIApplication, supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow window: UIWindow?) is called, but the app don't rotate. I guess is because with a tab bar and a navigation controller, things has to be done differently, but don't know how exactly. Can anyone help with this?
