Question

I have a UITableViewController that works in both portrait and landscape. From this controller I push another view controller on to the navigation controller. This new viewController is portrait only.

The problem is that when I am in landscape and push the view controller the new viewcontroller is in landscape as well until I rotate it to portrait. Then it’s stuck in portrait as it should be.

Is it possible to always make it appear in portrait? Even if its parent is pushing it in landscape?

Update:

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

Answer 1

In your viewWillAppear: use the following code:

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarOrientation:UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait];
