UIInterfaceOrientation Xcode

I would like my app to support PortraitUpSideDown orientation. I have changed the info.p list to reflect this and tried to implement the change on one view as a test

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
    // Return YES for supported orientations
    return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait);
    return YES;
    return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown);
    return YES;

}

But the view does not respond. Do I need to implement this on all views before the app responds? Is there a Xib setting I need to change?

Solution

  • If you would like to support both landscape orientations, try the following:

    - (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
    return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait || interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown);
}

    Or:

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

    Or somethings that looks like what you were trying to write:

    - (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
    if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait) {
        return YES;
    }
    if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown) {
        return YES;
    }
    return NO;
}
