Question

I have a Menu Scene that I would like to be Portrait Only, then I have a gamescene that I would like to only allow landscape-home-button-right but I can’t for the life of me figure it out. I tried adding shouldAutoRotate.. to the CCScene but that seems to only work on the RootViewController. How can I stop autorotation within the CCScene? Thank you for any help!

I’m using Cocos2D 2.0.

I can propose you to do next steps:
1. Create a singleton that manage your orientation depending on what scene is running.
2. When you enter a new scene you should say to this singleton what orientation this scene support
3. To your app delegate add something like this:

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
    return [[YourSingleton manager] supportingInterfaceOrientation];
}

- (NSUInteger)application:(UIApplication*)application supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow:(UIWindow*)window {
    return [[YourSingleton manager] supportingInterfaceOrientation];
}

I did not test this before but it should work.
