Only support for landscape Interface orientation

Question

I have application that uses landscape right orientation. In view controllers I use:

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
  // Return YES for supported orientations
  return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight);
}

But, If user locks iphone or ipad to portrait orientation, screen is displayed as portrait, not landscape. Also, in info.plist file I defined only Right Landscape orientation as supported one.

Note that there are two types of Landscape orientations: Left and Right. — Evan Mulawski, Nov 27 '10 at 20:56
Indeed, change your code to return `UIInterfaceOrientationLandscape(interfaceOrientation)` — jer, Nov 27 '10 at 21:04

Try setting the UIInterfaceOrientation key in your Info.plist to UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight. That should force landscape right orientation on launch.

I already set it. But it doesn't help when iphone is locked in portrait. – Krešimir Prcela Nov 28 '10 at 14:27

The problem was in function viewDidLoad where another view controller is pushed into navigation stack immediately. If pushing action is delayed then landscape rotation will start and proceed, and also desired view controller will be pushed properly with landscape orientation.
