I have the following setup:

  • A subclass of UISplitViewController that creates the master and detail view controllers in the constructor.
  • Master and Detail view controllers that both override shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation to return YES.
  • Detail view controller implements the UISplitViewControllerDelegate protocol and deals with the popover.

I am observing two weird issues that might be interrelated:

  1. When the split view comes up (in portrait mode – default on simulator), the Master view is visible. It should not be.

  2. When I rotate the simulator, the view does not “right” itself.

My UISplitViewController subclass does not override shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation. However, both master and details view controllers do and return YES.

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? Is this a simulator bug?

    For anyone else who lands here: This was happening because my split view controller’s view was not the root. This is absolutely required.
