Question

In this little test app, I have a ModalViewController that pops up over View One when you press the + button. That pulls up a NavigationViewController with three ViewControllers. The first allows you to create the post, the second is another modal view that allows you to choose a category and the last allows you to preview and ‘Post’ it. At this point (in the createTopic method) the data is sent and I dismiss the modal view:

[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];

At this time, all the madness begins. View One is now presented in landscape mode, though I have all but upright portrait disabled. Further, because they’re disabled, it won’t switch back to portrait. Where have I failed?

I’m not even sure which part of the code to post to you. Help?

Answer 1

“Disabling” upright portrait either in the app plist or in the summary tab doesn’t cut it. That’s merely a launch orientation. Call,

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
 return UIInterfaceOrientationIsPortrait(interfaceOrientation);
} 

In every UIViewController to limit rotation to portrait only modes.
