Loosing tint in iPad app after splitter popup activated

Question

I have applied a brown tint to the app. When I select the popup then switch back to landscape view, the app goes back to the default tint. Is there a way to stop that.

here's a few screen shots in order:

1: looks good

2: Activate popup

3: Looses tint, reverts to default

Answer 1

This is a bug. I've been following this issue for a very long time. It started out as a problem described in this question which apple attempted to fix in iOS 4.2. Unfortunately they didn't fix it properly and now we the behaviour you see above. I reported this to Apple and all I know is that it is a duplicate of bug 8594881. I do not know of any workarounds at this time either.
