`SystemChrome.setPreferredOrientations` landscape right or left doesn't work in some conditions

Tom3652 commented 2 weeks ago

Steps to reproduce

Run the sample code
Rotate the device to landscape mode according to the PreferredOrientations

Expected results

The device should rotate according to the PreferredOrientations selected in the List.

Actual results

If you set :

 await SystemChrome.setPreferredOrientations([
    DeviceOrientation.portraitUp,
    DeviceOrientation.landscapeRight
  ]);

or :

 await SystemChrome.setPreferredOrientations([
    DeviceOrientation.portraitUp,
    DeviceOrientation.landscapeLeft
  ]);

The device doesn't rotate at all from portraitUp

If you set :

 await SystemChrome.setPreferredOrientations([
    DeviceOrientation.portraitUp,
    DeviceOrientation.landscapeRight,
    DeviceOrientation.landscapeLeft
  ]);

The device rotates in all 3 orientations perfectly.

Code sample

```dart Future main() async { WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized(); await SystemChrome.setPreferredOrientations([ DeviceOrientation.portraitUp, DeviceOrientation.landscapeRight ]); runApp(const TestWidget()); } class TestWidget extends StatefulWidget { const TestWidget({super.key}); @override State createState() => _TestWidgetState(); } class _TestWidgetState extends State { @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return const MaterialApp( home: Scaffold( body: Center( child: Text("Hello world !"), ), ), ); } } ```

Thanks for the report @Tom3652 Is this specific to iOS or Android ? Also, please check below issues and see if they help in your case or not.

Since you showed me older issues, i have tested them and i have also tested everything using the latest flutter version 3.19.6.

The below tests are made using my sample code in the issue.

IOS :
- Every rotation (or combination of rotation) is working fine except portraitDown with the error : Failed to change device orientation: Error Domain=UISceneErrorDomain Code=101 "None of the requested orientations are supported by the view controller. Requested: portraitUpsideDown; Supported: landscapeRight" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=None of the requested orientations are supported by the view controller. Requested: portraitUpsideDown; Supported: landscapeRight}

Note : Rotations are blocked if you uncheck the rotation directly in Xcode (in that case, SystemChrome can't do anything)

Android :
- Use portraitUp && landscapeRight or portraitUp && landscapeLeft, only portraitUp is working
- Use portraitUp && landscapeRight && landscapeLeft it works fine
- Use landscapeRight || landscapeLeft alone, it starts in the correct orientations but doesn't rotate to the other

This follows my initial issue comment.

For now it's all the tests i have made, i have not tried portraitDown on Android but will update the comment once i do it of course

FYI team-ios: I'm already working on an issue that relates to orientation changes for Android - https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/144307. So, I can investigate this area of code as it relates to Android. However, there seems to be a cross-platform issue with SystemChrome.setPreferredOrientations. As noted above, there have also been a couple other issues reported in the past for iOS. In response to https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/147460#issuecomment-2083191592, we may want to clarify the expected iOS behavior in regards to Xcode.

The solution to this issue will warrant additional discussion (see https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/148136).

So, I am unassigning myself for now.
