Force Portrait

[sellnat77]

Do we want to force a portrait orientation or allow the user to switch between portrait or landscape?

If we do decide to force portrait we will be using this:

android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"

i will go with portrait only. but if you want to switch between both we need to do it programmatically like this:

Button buttonSetPortrait = (Button)findViewById(R.id.setPortrait); Button buttonSetLandscape = (Button)findViewById(R.id.setLandscape);

buttonSetPortrait.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener(){

public void onClick(View arg0) { setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT); } }); buttonSetLandscape.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener(){

public void onClick(View arg0) { setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE); } });
