In your UIViewController write something like this (example below is to force the app into landscape mode only): // Override to allow orientations other than the default portrait orientation. - (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation { // Return YES for supported orientations if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft) { [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarOrientation:UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft]; return YES; } else if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight) { [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarOrientation:UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight]; return YES; } return NO; } _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
