Question

My navigation controller’s navigation bar won’t change the height when rotated to landscape.

see it stays at 44 pixels instead of 34 i think.

What do i do to fix this?

Answer 1

You have to add your navigation controller directly as a subview to your window, otherwise this doesn’t work automatically. (It is not necessary to change the frame of your navigation bar manually.)

The -[application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:] method of your AppDelegate should contain something like

[window addSubview:self.yourNavController.view];

To get an example where this works automatically, you can also create a new navigation-based app in XCode and add an implementation for the shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: method of the RootViewController that always returns YES.
