Force orientation to be Portrait for one view and both for another

Question

My design is as follows: Menu -> App -> Back to Menu

I want my Menu to be 'Portrait ONLY'. My AppView can be Portrait & Landscape.

Currently in my MenuController, I have:

override func supportedInterfaceOrientations() -> UIInterfaceOrientationMask {
    return .Portrait
}

override func shouldAutorotate() -> Bool {
    return false
}

and in my AppView Controller I have:

override func shouldAutorotate() -> Bool {
    return true
}

override func supportedInterfaceOrientations() -> UIInterfaceOrientationMask {
    return UIInterfaceOrientationMask.All
}

However, my Main menu is rotating in all directions. Anything I am missing here? Thanks!

-(NSUInteger)suppoertedInterfaceOrientations
{
return self.topViewController.supportedInterfaceOrientations;
}

This will make sure that the viewController being displayed by navigation is in syn
